#HYPERSWITCH ALTERNATIVE MAC WINDOWS 10#

Cycles through tabs and windows, but only of the same app.Only see apps, not windows (note: can press down to see window of selected app).Things I would change: thumbnails are too small, app icon is on top of the thumbnail Also the almost-good-enough apps are not open-source. However, none was completely satisfactory so I rolled my own. Other great apps like Contexts are AltTab, Hyperswitch, Witch and VistaSwitcher. The best alternative is Compiz, which is both free and Open Source. There is no benchmark at the moment but energy was spent making sure the UI is responsiveīefore building my own app, I looked around at similar apps. There are more than 10 alternatives to Contexts for Mac, Windows and Linux. Thumbnails have a maximum width and height to help visualize very long, tall, small, big windows.Window titles will truncate with an ellipsis if they don't fit.UI elements have a subtle shadow to ensure readability.Also, the almost-good-enough apps are not open-source.

Delay before showing the UI to avoid flashing (default 200ms) However, none was completely satisfactory so I rolled my own.

Releasing control or clicking on a window will focus it.

Holding control after pressing a cycle shortcut will show the UI.

Quick press-and-release will cycle through apps without showing any UI Mavericks use Command + Tab to switch between the application but if you want to cycle through the different window of same application use this: Command + Tab + DownArrow it will show all the open windows of the same application which you can select using arrow keys.

control + shift + tab cycles through apps in reverse.On macOS there is an app cycling shortcut which doesn't let you select between windows of an app, and there is Mission Control which doesn't let you navigate using the keyboard.
