Double tap to switch between windows of the same app about pock

[rajington]

Could it just be a single tap (after activation)? Click and hold could be app-specific expose (what happens if you right click on dock and do show all windows).

Seems like the author intends to do something different there https://github.com/pigigaldi/Pock/blob/50e977a951b9620d04fccf9b79c9f738da184d0d/Pock/Widgets/Dock/PockItemView.swift#L154

Yeah, single tap on the active app sounds like a better option

I second the need for this. I suggest mimicking the behavior as it works in the regular dock.

Web browser windows across multiple Spaces make for a good use case to consider. If, for example, I have two Google Chrome pages open in one Space and a third open in another Space, taps on the Google Chrome icon in Pock might do the following:
1st tap - Focus the app, and thus the first open browser window
2nd tap - Focus the next (second) browser window, bringing it to the front (but not changing Spaces)
3rd tap - Focus the next (third) browser window, moving to the appropriate Space and bringing it to the front
4th tap - Focus the first window again, moving back to the original Space

I should note, this behavior wouldn't be timing-dependent. Any pause in between taps doesn't change what the next tap will do.

This is how I used my shortcuts in BetterTouchTool, it's really nice. I'd expect it to work just like Command+`, and not do anything fancy like change spaces. It was fairly simple in AppleScript, albeit a little slow. I'm guessing it would be more effort in Swift, however.

The current functionality changes Spaces when switching to an App whose primary window is in a different Space. If possible, I think it'd be nice to also change spaces when switching between windows in the current app (by tapping on the icon of the currently open app - the feature suggested in this thread).

Pretty sure that's a macOS thing, not something programmed into Pock.

I believe you're right about that. I'm just doing my best to make a case for the functionality that would work best for my particular workflow 😄.

If changing Spaces isn't in scope for this Request, I can make another one once this has been resolved and take a whack at it myself.

App Exposé feature is finally available from version 0.6

[rajington]

@pigigaldi wow App Exposé is really cool and really shows off the power of the touch bar, great job.

I do think there may be some users that want a more consistent static representation of their dock apps they can quickly tap on to cycle through open windows. App Exposé's tiny delay and requirement to look at the touch bar is what I'm trying to avoid.

Completely get this may not be the vision you had in mind or want to support, so I understand completely if you don't wish to re-open.
