Switch Windows in Ubuntu Using Keyboard

Question

Does anybody have any idea whether it is possible to switch between Windows in Ubuntu using the keyboard? I don't mean pressing Alt-Tab, but rather some key combination that switches to the first window, second window, etc. It is annoying to have to move your hard to the mouse many times when you have sometime routine task that you want to apply to all windows.

Also, any idea if this is possible under Windows?

Thanks,
Rafid

Answer 1

I use Ubuntu Desktop 14.04 TLS

I will create Launcher shortcuts (on left side bar) for my most common applications

so I can use super + [Number] combination key to open the application if that not running, or switch to the application if it already running.

Hope my anwser is useful.

Alt+ the number of the tab (reading from left to right). For example, for the third tab, Alt+3, for the fifth tab Alt+5, etc.)
