Vista Shortcut

[jboard1]

Hi all,

I am running vista and was wondering if anyone else has this issue. The button on the toolbar that allows you to view all opens apps..there is an option where you can choose a keyboard shortcut to engage that feature. I have tried many times to use this and not once has it worked. I choose the shortcut i want [ i think i have it as ctl up], i apply it, but when i do the shortcut keys, nothing happens. This isn't a huge issue for me, as i hardly use this feature to begin with. But it is something i have notices, so i thought i'd share it and see waht you all have to say. Thanks!

I haven't noticed this yet. Which toolbar are you referring to here ?

To switch windows using Flip 3D

Press the Windows logo key +TAB to open Flip 3D.

While holding down the Windows logo key, press TAB repeatedly or rotate the mouse wheel to cycle through open windows. You can also press RIGHT ARROW or DOWN ARROW to cycle forward one window, or press LEFT ARROW or UP ARROW to cycle backward one window.

Release the Windows logo key to display the window in front of the stack. Or, click any part of any window in the stack to display that window.

To close Flip 3D, release both the Windows logo key +TAB.

Tips

Another way to use Flip 3D is to press CTRL+Windows logo key +TAB to keep Flip 3D open. You can then press TAB to cycle through the windows. (You can also press RIGHT ARROW or DOWN ARROW to cycle forward one window, or press LEFT ARROW or UP ARROW to cycle backward one window.) Press ESC to close Flip 3D.

You can also open Flip 3D by clicking the Switch between windows button on the taskbar. Click a window in the stack to display that window, or click outside the stack to close Flip 3D without switching windows.

Note

Flip 3D and taskbar window previews will not work unless your computer's video card can display the advanced visual effects in Windows.
