keyboard shortcut to switch between windows within an application

Solution 1:

The existing shortcut is Alt + key above TAB

Depending on your keyboard key above TAB could be §, `, º, ^, ², etc.

Solution 2:

You should press Alt and the key just above the Tab key.

From comments, this is the key you should be pressed by keyboard layout:

  • Spanish ALT + º.
  • German ALT + ^.
  • Azerty french ALT + ².

In others may be ALT + § o ALT + ` (I don't know from where they come)

Solution 3:

  1. To go to the active application: ALT+TAB
  2. If multiple instance of the selected applications are opened and you want to navigate among them use : ALT+`

Solution 4:

If someone looking to bind to a different key combination, It can be done in settings. On Ubuntu 18.04.3, go to

settings > Devices > Keyboard >

Under Keyboard Shortcuts scroll to Navigation and click on Switch windows of an application change the key combination and set it. I have changed mine to Ctrl+` (the key above Tab)

Solution 5:

Opt + Tab will switch between windows of different applications running. CTRL + Tab will switch between windows within the same application.

At least this is how it is running Ubuntu on my Macbook.
