you can configure hotkey to switch between all window on all desktops using dconf-editor, key org.mate.Marco.global-keybindings.switch-windows-all
from marco.
Just to clarify, when all apps are on a single workspace, then alt-tab's focus is to the most recently used app prior to the one you are switching away from. This is the correct behavior in my opinion. Once you switch away from an app to do something else, most of the time you want to go back to the earlier app to resume working. What would be great is that this behavior is the same even if your apps are spread across multiple workspaces.

If this feature request is accepted, then I am hoping that the keyboard shortcut for switching to windows on other desktops would be different from "Alt-Tab". Otherwise Mate would be a similar 'mess' as unity.
from marco.
I suggest a shortcut like [Alt]+[Tab]+[Shift].

I would like to have this feature implemented.

I was able to bind Tab to switch all windows on all desktops using dnk's suggestion. However, the only minor annoyance is that it always starts the focus on the leftmost window. I wish there was a way to get the focus to start with the most recently focused window, even if that is in the middle of the list.

@dnk: Thanks a lot ! I was waiting for this feature for a long time too !
+1 for artgtan suggestion : that would be the correct behaviour..
from marco.
@artgtan: Well, that's exactly the behaviour that i can observe since i activated this option through dconf with Manjaro Mate 1.8.1.
And now that you gave an explanation for this behaviour, i can understand it as well..
from marco.
I would like to have this feature implemented with artgtan's comments considered as well.
from marco.
I agree with @artgtan and @etherea..us.
from marco.
Isn't [Alt]+[Tab]+[Shift] the same as [Alt]+[Tab] but in reverse order? In this case [Alt]+[Tab]+[Shift] is not a good shortcut
from marco.
Since this feature is implemented I'm closing this issue. Please open a new one if you wish to change the behavior of the switcher or some other aspects.
