All of the references I've found for Gnome 3 keyboard shortcuts list that alt+tab switches between applications and alt+` switches between windows (some actually say alt+~, but I think they're mistaken, and I've tried both anyway). Maybe that functionality works for Gnome 3 on Fedora or something, because no matter the key combo I try, nothing will switch between windows except for opening the alt+tab dialog and using arrow keys to navigate it (and at that point it's faster to just use a mouse..).



How do I quickly switch between windows in Gnome 3?

In GNOME 3, you can permanently change Alt+Tab to switch between windows, instead of switching between applications:




  • Open Settings

  • Select Devices->Keyboard

  • Search for "Switch Windows" and enter Alt+Tab as the new shortcut.

  • A dialog will tell you the shortcut is already being used by "Switch Applications", select Replace to confirm.
