Following up, this seems related to my previous post. If I have an app with two windows open, once Alt-Tabby shows that app, it just toggles between those windows. Group windows of the same app was turned on, with it turned off the widows behaved normally. That might explain some of the behaviour I reported above.

Not sure when it happened, but I'm not seeing the carousel, just the current window and icons below it.

The 0.9 release is useless on my system. It doesn't stay on top.

Do you mean it closes when you release alt tab or something else?

Which mode is it set to for staying open?

My issue noted is basically the same. If I select "When keys are held for longer" v0.9 will disappear as soon as I try to swap apps. It's disappears so fast I'm not sure I could select another window except the next. Of course I'm holding down alt but it still switches and disappears. 

The only way I can use is by selecting "Always pinned", but I lose the ability to "quick switch".

I'm seeing the same. I see one window in the display, with icons below. I can use arrow keys to navigate, and then <Enter> or mouse-click on the window to select.

That sounds different?

Could you post a screenshot of what you are seeing?

Appreciate the fix for pinned profile windows.  Any update on brave tab support?

End of turtlenut's quote

Brave tabs should be working the same as Chrome / Edge ones.  Just make sure you have the option enabled in Alt Tabby to show tabs and promote them to top level (if wanted)

End of Neil's quote

Still not working for me.  I have the options enabled.  I see tabs when I use Edge.  I don't see them when I use Brave (which is what I use most).  I'd attach a screenshot but I can't seem to capture one that includes the AltTabby display!

You need to click on the cog top right of the carousel option in the AltTabby settings and pick "Wheel continues into next app"

Ah, I must have turned that off while trying to sort out other issues. I think I assumed it referred to the mouse wheel.

I can still only use it with "Always pinned" set. Either of the other settings just moves to the "next" window.

What country are you in?  Wondering if this is linked to keyboard layouts.
