Summary: using ALT-TAB for switching back to OS Product: Wine Version: unspecified Platform: All OS/Version: All Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: enhancement Priority: P2 Component: -unknown AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org ReportedBy: fieroch@web.de
It would be great to have an option for switching back to the operating system using the key combination ALT-TAB like in windows. I do think it's a good idea for wine-applications running in fullscreen like games to minimize the running program after pressing ALT-TAB. So you can check mails, incoming messages or change the music running in the background quickly and return to the game by pressing ALT-TAB again or by maximizing the minimized program in the panel.
Currently a lot of games ignore the key combination ALT-TAB even though it is used in the window manager for switching programs. If you are running a game in fullscreen and want to have a short look in your messages or browser now you have to save the game, quit it, do your needs and then restart the game.
