App closing after swipe up #623

Closed thalesmaoa closed 1 year ago

thalesmaoa commented 1 year ago

I've just installed the new elementary OS Horus. Multigesture works natively. However, I'm getting an annoying bug. Three fingers up enables multitask view. If I make the "up movement" really slow, no problem arise. If I make it quick, my windows close.

The swipe up is being performed in the up. Despite of stating No action configured for this gesture, the app is closing.

Checking your logs, it doesn't look like Touchégg is closing the app.

The close app action shows an animation like this one: https://github.com/JoseExposito/touchegg#close-a-window-close_window And I imagine you are not showing it.

Have in mind that 3 fingers tap closes apps in elementary OS multitasking view. Make sure you are not tapping after swiping.

Closing the issue as this is not a Touchégg problem, but feel free to add any comments.

Hi @JoseExposito , appreciate your help.

And I imagine you are not showing it.

I presented the full log. Nothing omitted. Besides, I can't see the animation of windows closing.

Not at all. Probably some but from Thinkpad, but this doesn't happen in my MacOS or my previous build of elementary in a Inspiron.

I apologize to insist, but let me suppose something:

What if there there is a bug in the Thinkpad touch (I will look in the bios). The way I see to fix it is adding a delay and avoid overlap gestures. Is there a way to perform it?

It doesn't look like a Touchégg bug. There might be an issue with your touchpad sensitivity.

I suspect that, somehow, your touchpad is tapping and closing the app accidentally.

A good way to test it is disabling tap to click in mouse and touchpad settings and checking if you can reproduce the bug. If you can't, it means that an extra tap is sent by your touchpad.

Also, you can run sudo libinput debug-events --verbose and see if the tap is happening. I don't have access to a Linux box right now, but, from the top of my head, that command should print a log when you tap.

Hi @JoseExposito , I confirm that three fingers tap doesn't close my windows. Also, 

$ sudo libinput debug-events --verbose
[sudo] senha para thales:        
sudo: libinput: comando não encontrado

How can I use elementary without libinput?

EDIT: In fact, in multitask view, three fingers close the app. In regular view, three fingers doesn't close the app.

You'd need to install the libinput-tools package.

Yes, that's what I ment here, sorry if it wasn't clear:

That's why I'd give this a try:

A good way to test it is disabling tap to click in mouse and touchpad settings and checking if you can reproduce the bug. If you can't, it means that an extra tap is sent by your touchpad.

If you disable tap to click and you are not able to close the apps accidentally it means that your touchpad is sending an extra tap.

thalesmaoa commented 1 year ago

You are completely right. I confirm that this is a touchpad problem. Is there a way to disable three fingers click to close the windows? I tried touché, but it is all blank.

This is not related to Touchégg, you will need to request this feature in Gala: https://github.com/elementary/gala
