alttab VS awesome-revelation

If you already have rofi you can to do rofi -show window there's also a standalone window switcher https://github.com/sagb/alttab

Anyhow I found this program called alttab which I use now

Do you mean currently visible desktops or windows? https://github.com/sagb/alttab is the utility of my choice to get what I wanted.

Jumping to the actual tag/monitor will also make sure it does not break other tools, like `alttab` (https://github.com/sagb/alttab) for example.

I also read about the alttab program

I know youre asking about how to setup sxhkd to do this but could I also suggest an app that does this very well? Its called alttab on git hub.

alttab

Generally the icon of an application is defined by its desktop-entry. The patch desktopentry serves this purpose. Unfortunately, some programs like tint2 or alttab can't make use of the desktop-entry and rely instead on a hardcoded icon which has to be defined by the application itself with the window-propery _NET_WM_ICON. Since st doesn't define _NET_WM_ICON this programs can't display the correct icon for st even if a desktop-entry exists. This patch solves this problem.

If i use alttab it would still detect only 3 windows. So the question is: how can I make it so that the tabs in a tabbed session are recognized as individual windows? Any shell script or tool is accepted

There is also alttab but in my limited try it just Alt-tabs between windows in a workspace. Might have settings for others but I'm not aware of that.

Thanks, I will have that as option, what I wanted is something like in gnome where when super is pressed it will show all opened windows as preview, and you can click select to go to that particular windows, awesomewm have an extension called revelation which does this, is something like that possible with qtile.

Check out revelation.lua - there should be some helpful stuff in there to do with grabbing all clients across every tag on the screen

try https://github.com/guotsuan/awesome-revelation/tree/master i think this will fill the function of a pager.

You can get overview with Revelation, take a look: IMG

Take a look on Revelation too: awful.key({ modkey, altkey }, "space", function() revelation({rule={class="conky"}, is_excluded=true, curr_tag_only=true}) end),

I have never managed to get it to work, but I think this is what awesome-revelation is supposed to do. https://github.com/guotsuan/awesome-revelation
