IF that doesn't work, go here:

You could try adding <option name="Xfwm/CycleWorkspaces" type="int" value="1"/> to you ~/.config/xfce4/mcs_settings/xfwm4.xml file, but it most likely wont work.

About: Alt+Tab = Windows Cycling among workspace (not only current one)

I really want that feature, because i'd like to avoid to use the ctrl+alt+right shortcut (which require 2 hands)

nope, it's intended that alt-tab only cycles through windows on the
current workspace.  this isn't a preference, and, IMHO, it shouldn't be.

Other features I like to use : a shortcut to unhide the pannel taskbar

Can I get a specific patch for a specific version? Or do I have to use a certain version for the patch to work?

Thanks again, Jamie

I'm a bit of a newbie, so forgive me if this is the wrong forums or something. I really like xfce, but I would like the alt-tab function to be more like MS Windows, ie, show me a list of processes/icons, atm I don't find alt-tabbing between apps too easy, and I tend to rely on the size of the window as a guide, which is a bit rubish.

I am on debian testing.

Thanks, Jamie
