[BUG] [CONFLICT] Weird window...?

[certifiedfoolio]

Describe the bug Weird "window" appears on gnome-shell startup on the first workspace. This only started occurring after I installed v-shell. It works like a regular window, and the window name seems to be "Gjs." Basic debug information

• Did disabling all other extensions help? Sorta.
• Did you find conflicting extension? Disabling Forge (window tiling extension) made this "window" disappear.

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Login
2. Weird solid-color window appears (in my case it is gray, idk if its the same on other systems)

Expected behavior Gnome-shell starting as expected WITHOUT any weird windows.

Screenshots Don't worry, not having window controls is part of my workflow.

System:

• OS: Bazzite 40
• Version of V-Shell extension: 65
• Source of installation: Extension Manager
• Other installed and enabled extensions: Forge, Burn My Windows, Custom OSD, Dash2Dock, Date Menu Formatter, RebootToUEFI, Peek Top Bar in Fullscreen, Dim BG Windows, Forge, Media Controls, Notif Alert, QSTweak, Rounded Window Corners Reborn, RunCat, Search Light, User Avatar, Blur My Shell, AppIndicator and KStatusNotifierItem Support, Caffiene, Hot edge, Just Perfection, User Themes, Wallpaper Slideshow (i have a lot lol)

Disabling Forge, logging out and back in, and re-enabling still brings back this "window" to the current workspace, btw.

Thanks for reporting this. However, there are too many conflicting extensions on your list. It's not just Forge and V-Shell that could be involved. You'll need to identify which combinations of extensions and their settings are causing the issue.

Upon further experimentation, I have indeed found another culprit! "Peek Top Bar on Fullscreen" (peek-top-bar-on-fullscreen@marcinjahn.com), in combination w/ Forge, will cause this "window" to appear.

You can try disabling some of the V-Shell modules, I'd start with "Panel".

Nope. Annoying window still appears... :/
