How can i do such things as swap left Alt with left Win and use left Alt as 3rd level chooser?

If I use both the swapping does not take effect but my Alt key is 3rd level chooser and Win key opens the run prompt (?). Don't know how it is called. I've tried xmodmap to change the keys but without success.

I'm using German (Macintosh) as keyboard layout.

Thanks for any help.

There is a shortcut in the 'setxkbmap' command that does exactly that.

# Usefule for 'mac' keyboards.
setxkbmap -option altwin:swap_alt_win

I find it useful with Mac keyboards. However, it may interfer with other modifications that you do with xkb.
