I have 2 displays on my PC - several apps are opened, but 2 are maximized on 2 monitors.

Since I mostly use the keyboard, it's annoying to have to grab the mouse to switch the focus from 1 window to another.

Is there a shortcut I could use to switch the focus to "maximized window" on display 2 if focus is somewhere in display 1 and vice versa?


I saw this thread:
https://askubuntu.com/questions/5278...witch-displays
linked to:
https://github.com/Eitol/screen_focus_changer
but, i can't find "11-xserver-utils" on my arch based linux, hence i can't use this git app.

Is there soln for me ? i am using endeavouros linux plasma.

If someone thinking "alt+tab" can do the trick, i will let this below to reply him

"I want to switch displays in dual-monitor setup, not windows. I have multiple applications open, and I don't want to press alt-tab a lot of times until I reach the one on the other display"

that should be x11-xerver-utils, probably you missed an x at the beginning.
from the other hand it may depend on the window manager you have, probably there is a shortcut to switch focus.
xdotool looks promising: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/...w-to-change-it
Also you may try to look for window title or process id (to identify the window you need).

Just waant to say i have got it to work.

*need to check "Separate screen focus" option first
System settings → Window behavior → Focus tab → Multiscreen behavior: → Separate screen focus [v]

then add shortcut to these 2 features:
"Switch to Next Screen" = ctrl + alt + up
"switch to previous screen" = ctrl + alt + down

**note: this only good if you don't need to switch mouse focus on different monitor. good for keyboard user.

in that case please mark the thread solved.

where is the "solve" button ?

upper right corner, look for thread tools first.
