How is Shift+Atl+Tab navigation enabled in GNOME when multiple keyboard layouts are used?












0















I'm using Ubuntu 18.04 and have used Gnome Tweaks(1) to restore normal keyboard layout switching behavior where pressing Alt+Shift cycles between enabled layouts. I've also used Gnome Settings(2) in an attempt to restore normal windows switching where Alt+Tab brings up a list of windows and moves the selected window from the most recently-used window to the least, and Shift+Alt+Tab moves the cursor in the opposite direction.



Keyboard layout works will. Window switching does not: Alt+Tab behaves as expected but Shift+Alt+Tab does not because it changes the keyboard layout rather than traverse the window list.



How can I restore normal Shift+Alt+Tab functionality when using multiple layouts? I know it's possible because I've read a blog post on how to do it once, however I was unable to find said blog post again.



Thank you.





Notes:




  1. The setting is under Tweaks > Keyboard & Mouse > Additional Layout Options.

  2. Normal Keyboard Shortcut reassignment.
