Winkey+Tab. If you have a scroll wheel you can use it to flip/scroll through the progs.

Windows key and tab. Use tab to flip through the windows :)

Hmmm.
I have tried every combination and cannot get Flip 3d to work. Any ideas?

I rather doubt you can. Aero Glass and the 3d flip feature require a WDDM

video card with at least 256MB of RAM.
Your Sony does not qualify.

He said in the OP that he has glass enabled

I run Aero Glass and 3D flip with a 128MB video card (ATI FireGL V3100).

Thanks for the information. I had not used it before. I like it.

Me too. You only need 128 ram although more is always better, but not necessary in this case. dotcom

Not true. 256 is not required. 3D rendering and DirectX 9 are more important that any memory requirement anyway. Everyone seems to think that enough video memory is sufficient to run Glass, but it is the WDDM compliance that you refer to that is critical.

Hadn't thought of that. Looks cool, but just using the normal Alt-TAB is plenty good enough for me.

thx guys, I for one am loving vista, it is intuative, great looking and judging by whats to come it will revolutionise the way we share information and create ideas. Once most of the major bugs are sorted out I will be subscribing. "Colin Barnhorst" wrote in message

Yay. A windows update came out today and all of a sudden, Flip 3D works. Whether or not the two are related...I'll have to figure that out.

I have an ati radeon xpress 200m 128mb/128bit video (no bios tune), which is integrated and fully compatible with vista. No trouble, but the aero is not so transparent. Its just a visual effect, but cool!
