Summary: Overview doesn't work in virtual desktops outside of
the first desktop.
Classification: Plasma
Product: kwin
Version: 6.3.3
Platform: Fedora RPMs
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: effects-window-management
Assignee: kwin-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: m...@schwager.com
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
Overview doesn't work if I switch to other desktops of a 2x2 virtual desktop
environment, depending on how I switch.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Make the upper-left-hand corner active so that when the mouse is put there
it will enact "Overview".
2. Move the mouse to the upper-left-hand corner. See the Overview of my
windows. Hit Escape so the Overview goes away.
3. Hit Meta-W. See the Overview. Hit Escape. It goes away.
4. In a terminal window, type: "qdbus org.kde.kglobalaccel /component/kwin
invokeShortcut Overview". See the Overview. Hit Escape. It goes away.
5. Rejoice for at this point, all is well.
6. I have a 2x2 grid of desktops. Navigate to desktop 3 *using the panel*. Or,
navigate to desktop 3 using a kwin keyboard shortcut. Your choice.
7. Move the mouse to the upper-left-hand corner. There will not be an Overview
of my windows
8. Hit Meta-W. Do not see the Overview.
9. In a terminal window, type: "qdbus org.kde.kglobalaccel /component/kwin
invokeShortcut Overview". Do not see the Overview.
10. Go back to Desktop 1, again using the panel.
11. Perform either of steps 7, 8, or 9.
12. Repeat step 7, 8, or 9. Except this time it works like step 2, 3, or 4
respectively.
13. Move the mouse to the upper left hand corner. See the Overview. Choose
another desktop.
14. Move the mouse to the upper left hand corner. See the Overview.
OBSERVED RESULT
Overview's behavior is erratic. It will fail to work, depending on which method
I use to switch desktops.
EXPECTED RESULT
I can always use Overview on any desktop, and switch between desktops using any
method available to KDE.
