Bug ID: 427578
Summary: When switching activities using the "walk through
activities" keyboard shortcut, no window is active
Product: kwin
Version: 5.19.5
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: minor
Priority: NOR
Component: activities
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
Running Neon unstable, since a few weeks ago I started noticing that when
switching between activities using the "walk through activities" (or "walk
through activities (reverse)"), in the destination activity no window has the
focus - no window has an active border and if I hit the "window operations
menu" shortcut, nothing comes up (showing no window is active).
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Set up two or more activities
2. Set up "walk through activities" keyboard shortcut (it should be on by
default to "Meta + Tab")
3. Open some windows in one activity
4. Switch to another activity and open some more windows
5. Switch back to the first activity
OBSERVED RESULT
No window is active on the first activity
EXPECTED RESULT
The last window that was active on the first activity, before switching, should
be active when switching back.
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux/KDE Plasma:
(available in About System)
KDE Plasma Version: 5.20.80 (but I think it was a problem in 5.19.90)
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.76.0
Qt Version: 5.15.0
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
kwin is installed from the Neon unstable repositories and is currently at
package version 4:5.19.5+p20.04+git20201012.0328-0
It is important to note that using the activity menu to switch activities works
fine(!!) - the problem is only when switching using the "walk through
activities" global keyboard shortcut.
Also - switching to another virtual desktop in the same activity works fine and
the correct window is made active on the destination virtual desktop, but when
switching to another activity with the global keyboard shortcut, even if the
new activity is currently on another virtual desktop, there will be no active
window.
