Hi,

I reset the Global Keyboard Shortcuts>KWin. I lost the default Alt+Tab behavior. I am finding it hard that Alt+Tab is not assigned by default.

Could anyone explain what these are and the difference between them?

1. Windows class
2. Window Tabs
3. Windows
4. Windows Alternative
5. Windows of current application
6. Windows of current application alternative

When I set "Walk through Windows" as Alt+Tab the task switcher moves from bottom to up which doesn't seem to give me any understanding of how windows are being walked through. If I do Alt+Shift+Tab then also it goes from bottom to up in Task Switcher.

Thanks.

Rather configure the entire thing through "kcmshell5 kwintabbox", window tabs are currently not implemented in KWin/5 (you'd have more windows stacked into one and a tabbar instead of the title)

Resetting keyboard shortcuts set the order to recent instead of stacking. It made it jump through the list which confused me.

Who is responsible for setting this kwintabbox defaults? Distributions? Plasma?

Thanks.

The reset button in the tabbox kcm resets *every* tabbox setting, not the shortcuts.
The defaults are set by kwin (for it's a kwin feature) and written down in some .kcfg in the sources.
