I’m using i3 for a short while and i missing switch focus with alt-tab keys and i looked and didn’t found an easy way all ways were hacky and complicated so any idea how to make it work ?
If you want to switch focus to the previous viewed workspace, this should do it
bindsym Mod1+Tab workspace back_and_forth
@Mahmoud You can use mod+arrows to change focus.
I think it not implemented like under windows because the i3 philosophy.
Oh if you’re talking about focus cycling between windows, then you should see this. Seems like they don’t want to implement it
Yes what i was asking about but sad news that they won’t implement it thanks for responding
I found a rofi script that brought up all the windows in rofi and you selected from there. I can’t find it now though sorry.
there are some 3rd party tools available, not tested them with i3 myself, but hope it’ll work:

Skippy-xd works perfectly.
