[REQUEST] Accept timeout below 1 second #1926

Before opening a feature request

  • I checked the next branch to see if the feature has already been implemented
  • I searched existing reports to see if it is already requested.

What is the user problem or growth opportunity you want to see solved?

I'd like a timeout below "1 second".

How do you know that this problem exists today? Why is this important?

I am willing to have the Alt-Tab behavior, so I am using rofi with the following command

rofi -selected-row 1 -modi windowcd,window -show windowcd -kb-accept-entry '!Super-Tab,Return' -kb-row-down Super-Tab,Down -kb-row-up Super+Shift+Tab,  Up -timeout-delay 1 -timeout-action kb-accept-entry

The idea is: if I don't press Tab (or Super+Tab) after starting it, I just want the previously focused window. So, the "1 second timeout" is great, but a bit too long. I tried with "0.5" but it does not seem to work.

WM: awesomewm

Who will benefit from it?

People willing to have an Alt-Tab with rofi as in most WM/DE/etc.

Rofi version (rofi -v)

Version: 1.7.5
