Select app with arrows keys #130

Hi, it would be great if we could select an app with arrows keys (it is already doing when using Alt+Ctrl+Tab or Alt+Tab+S).

this already works with arrow key, can you be more specific? alt+j/k also works to move the selection in list up/down

glae commented 5 years ago

To be more specific :

alt+space ("Activate Switcheroo with this shortcut") then arrow keys works fine
alt+tab ("Activate Switcheroo with Alt+Tab") then arrow keys works fine
alt+tab ("Activate Switcheroo with Alt+Tab") and "Automatically switch window when releasing alt+tab" then arrow keys does not work fine (I am using this 3rd setup)

andycjw commented 5 years ago

that's because it's supposed to work like the default windows 'alt+tab' with your 3rd setup, to move the selection, just keep tapping the 'tab', that's how the original 'alt-tab' works

OK thanks for the explanation! I close the issue then.
