Is there a way to tweak Alt+Tab in Gnome 3 so it will iterate windows only in the current workspace?

I'm using Debian wheezy.

This command also does the trick:

gsettings set org.gnome.shell.app-switcher current-workspace-only true

    +1 in fact, changing this setting is exactly what the extension does. Commented Jan 23, 2016 at 19:58

There's an extension for GNOME Shell which enables this behaviour: https://extensions.gnome.org/extension/310/alt-tab-workspace/

  • This is no longer necessary given that there's now a settings that's configurable. See the other answer. Commented Oct 25, 2017 at 15:46
