Since upgrading to 12.04, my alt-tab occasionally does not work. I cannot determine the symptoms that lead to it, but there are some windows that just decide not to show. What happens is I alt-tab to a given window, say the terminal, and instead of showing it, I just see it wobble like a notification in the list of programs down the left. Is this a bug?

Yes, I noticed that too! I'm surprised they forgot something as important as that.



Install CompizConfig Settings Manager:



To open terminal hit Alt+Ctrl+T and run following commands:



sudo apt-get install compizconfig-settings-manager



Or search for compizconfig-settings-manager in Software Center and install from there.



Then go to System Tools > Preferences > CompizConfig, if you can't find System Tools, look for CompizConfig Settings Manager in Unity Dash.



Go at the very bottom where it says Windows Management



Put a check-mark in Application Switcher



That should fix it.



Go to System Tools > Preferences > CompizConfig or search forCompizConfig Settings Manager in Unity Dash. Then,
Windows Manager-Application Switcher. click on Next window-alt-tab click it.
click on ''Grab key Combination'', here actually use alt+tab, & it will grab it.
OK
