Bug ID: 428483
Summary: meta/super/win key shortcut for launcher menu doesn't
work if widget is only on desktop
Product: kwin
Version: 5.20.2
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general

Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
If you drag the app launcher from panel to desktop without doing anything else
(and checking the shortcut Alt + F1 is still assigned), the super/meta/win key
shortcut stops working. If you put back the launcher on the panel the shortcut
works again.
Same if I remove the app launcher from the panel and put a new one on the
desktop (and assign a shortcut, say alt + F1) the super/met/win key shortcut
doesn't work. When I put back the launcher on the panel it works again, the
super/meta/win key shortcut works again right away.
At all times ~/.config/kwinrc does contain:
[ModifierOnlyShortcuts]
Meta=org.kde.plasmashell,/PlasmaShell,org.kde.PlasmaShell,activateLauncherMenu
I have also tried reloading kwin and rebooting the computer after putting the
widget on the desktop just in case.
Seems like "looking for the first widget with the global shortcut" does not
work if the only widget is on the desktop.
Btw, the reason I want the widget on the desktop is because my panel is on
auto-hide and each time I trigger the shortcut to open the menu, the whole
panel pops up, which is a little annoying.
Hopefully this is useful a feedback for improvement.
