This proposal make use of the Super modifier key (aka Windows key) to interact with windows in common tasks like moving, expanding, focusing, minimizing...
Window switching (Alt+Tab style)
W-Tab Next window (like A-Tab) W-S-Tab Previous window (like A-S-Tab)
Directional window focus:
W-Left focus the window at the left of current window W-Right focus the window at the right of current window W-Up focus the window at the north of current window W-Down focus the window at the south of current window
Directional window moving:
W-C-Left Move the window to left W-C-Right Move the window to right W-C-Up Move the window to north W-C-Down Move the window to south
Directional window expanding:
W-S-Left expand the window to the left W-S-Right expand the window to the right W-S-Up expand the window to the north W-S-Down expand the window to the south
Other util keys
W-Space maximize window W-Enter toggle full screen W-Esc minimize window W-B toggle decorations (border of windows) W-d show desktop
And this is the configuration to enable the above described shortcuts:
<keybind key="W-Tab"> <action name="NextWindow"/> </keybind> <keybind key="W-S-Tab"> <action name="PreviousWindow"/> </keybind> <keybind key="W-Up"> <action name="DirectionalFocusNorth"> <dialog>yes</dialog> </action> </keybind> <keybind key="W-Down"> <action name="DirectionalFocusSouth"> <dialog>yes</dialog> </action> </keybind> <keybind key="W-Left"> <action name="DirectionalFocusWest"> <dialog>yes</dialog> </action> </keybind> <keybind key="W-Right"> <action name="DirectionalFocusEast"> <dialog>yes</dialog> </action> </keybind> <keybind key="W-C-Up"> <action name="MoveToEdgeNorth"/> </keybind> <keybind key="W-C-Down"> <action name="MoveToEdgeSouth"/> </keybind> <keybind key="W-C-Left"> <action name="MoveToEdgeWest"/> </keybind> <keybind key="W-C-Right"> <action name="MoveToEdgeEast"/> </keybind> <keybind key="W-S-Up"> <action name="UnmaximizeFull"/> <action name="GrowToEdgeNorth"/> </keybind> <keybind key="W-S-Down"> <action name="UnmaximizeFull"/> <action name="GrowToEdgeSouth"/> </keybind> <keybind key="W-S-Left"> <action name="UnmaximizeFull"/> <action name="GrowToEdgeWest"/> </keybind> <keybind key="W-S-Right"> <action name="UnmaximizeFull"/> <action name="GrowToEdgeEast"/> </keybind> <keybind key="W-space"> <action name="ToggleMaximizeFull"/> </keybind> <keybind key="W-Return"> <action name="ToggleFullscreen"/> </keybind> <keybind key="W-Escape"> <action name="Iconify"/> </keybind> <keybind key="W-B"> <action name="ToggleDecorations"/> </keybind> <keybind key="W-d"> <action name="ToggleShowDesktop"/> </keybind>
