Request: Refresh the recent window list after hotkey release

Open robmonte opened this issue 2 years ago • 0 comments

Currently if you have 3 windows of an application, let's say Notepad A, Notepad B, and Notepad C, Windows-Switcher cycles down a list of these windows instead of starting with the most recent. I think it should behave more like Alt+Tab in that it refreshes the list of recent windows every time the hotkey gets released.

Desired behavior:

  1. With Notepad A open, hold alt and press `
  2. Notepad B gains focus
  3. Release both alt and `
  4. Hold alt and press `
  5. Notepad A gains focus

You can test this with alt+tab and see that this is the way it behaves - the most recent window updates after releasing the alt key.

The currently behavior of Windows-Switcher is like so:

  1. With Notepad A open, hold alt and press `
  2. Notepad B gains focus
  3. Release both alt and `
  4. Hold alt and press `
  5. Notepad C gains focus

Despite release all hotkey buttons, the most recent window did not update to Notepad A, and the application instead moved on to Notepad C as the next window.
