I'm using ubuntu 11.04 with unity-2d but without compiz because my computer has a two-screen setup. I'd like to know if there's any way of having a view of all active applications running like Mac OS X' Expose feature. Super+w doesn't work on unity-2d, which is a recognized bug. I've noticed some related topics (for example : Can Unity display a Launcher icon for Spread Mode?) but all are based on compiz and therefore are not relevant for me. Does anyone has a clue on how to do this whithout compiz? Thanks for your help

The program that does this has been a plugin for Compiz for some time. I have not seen this replicated in any other porgram, though i've seen similar in KWin (for KDE; don't use if you are on Gnome/Unity)

I had searched this functionality for xfce but everytime I crash back to compiz. This functionality is given by scale plugin in compiz. Basically skippy is something not related to window managers as @Denwerko link points out but its long dead project. So for now its either compiz or KWin so you may try compiz as unity-2d itself will be using compiz

Here is how you use compiz with unity-2d
