Suppose I press $mod+A(default key) several times to select all the windows in current workspace. Now I change my mind and want to go back to previously selected window.

How can I do that without switching to another workspace?

It's all in 6.4. Focusing/Moving containers: Use focus child for that.

For some reason, the default $mod+d shortcut is commented out in the default config:

 #bindsym Mod1+d focus child

Just remove the #.

I guess it's commented because `$mod+d` is for dmenu
