Remove app from alt-tab switcher












1















I want an application removed from the alt-tab switcher.



I have tried CompizConfig Manager functions 'Skip taskbar' and 'Skip pager'.



First I tried setting 'window class', then tried 'window id', but neither of these excluded the given application from switcher.



Are there any solutions to the matter?

  • Not sure how to do it, but CompizConfig Manager will most certainly won't work with 18.04 as this Ubuntu version uses GNOME instead of Unity+Compiz.
