Bug ID: 457074
Summary: New Present Windows in 5.25: Search bar should be
optional + missing animation
Product: kwin
Version: 5.25.3
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: effects-present-windows
Assignee: kwin-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: m...@elbmurf.de
Target Milestone: ---
The always-on search bar in the reimplemetation of Present Windows in Plasma
5.25 might improve the discoverability of window search in the effect but it
takes vertical space, thus making the window previews a bit smaller than they
would be without the search bar. On smaller displays, this is an annoyance.
Please provide an option for disabling this this.
Apart from that, the search bar is downright broken on my machine. I cannot
even click into it.
The old effect allowed to just type to filter in the window search, this
doesn’t work either now.
Additionally, the search bar is appearing without animation. It abruptly starts
with the blurry layer and abruptly ends… after the blurry layer fades out?
There is no fade-in or fade-out.
EXPECTED RESULT
• Option for disabling the search bar
• Fade-in and -out animations for the search bar
• The search bar should even *work* when on screen, currently, at least on my
machine, I cannot type into it
• Search should also be possible through just-type like in the old
implementation
