Alt+Tab like MacOS #19136

Open naisanzaa opened 2 years ago

naisanzaa commented 2 years ago

Description of the new feature / enhancement

Alt+Tab shows the Applications that are running instead of individual windows.

Scenario when this would be used?

Like in MacOS, when you want to bring all the windows of an Application forward to the front.

Supporting information

Both are acceptable enhancements to the Alt+Tab behavior to be more like MacOS.

I think in this way you should have another shortcut to switch among windows of the same application. Maybe Alt+` would be OK.

You use the entire screen space.

Here are my PowerToy FancyZone settings:

What I need help with is simply this:

This will simulate MacOS double clicking the title bat to stretch the window out to all edges (and the window remains resizable on all 4 edges)
