ALT+TAB is the "classic".

Win+TAB is the Flip 3D one, if you keep the Windows key held down and use
the mouse wheel you can scroll backwards or forwards through the windows
too.

Thanks,

Is there a possibility to change the hotkeys on that? My thoughts on this
is that I want to be able to press my middle mouse button down to do the
same thing as the Win+Tab keys so that it brings up the flip 3d screen,
instead of having to use the hotkeys themselves and my mouse (ms notebook
wireless 3000) doesn't allow me to use the win or tab key as a hotkey
activated by the mouse button.

Or heck, I'd be more than happy if I could just make my F5 key be the same
as win+tab just so that it's one key instead of two.

Thanks,

Also, when I press Win+Tab and let up on the win key the 3d flip window goes
away. What I'd like to be able to do is somehow hotkey the button that can
be pressed on the start bar so that the 3d flip window stays up on my screen
instead of disappearing when I release the win key.

Thanks again,

Ctrl+Win+Tab does that
