launcher mode doesn't work in Gnome 3.38.4 #134

At First, thank you for your very useful and lovely extension, I can't imagine Gnome without this.

Secondly, yesterday I updated the Gnome to 3.38.4 (in Manjaro) and then the switcher. But after that, I have no access to the launcher mode, I mean pressing both super+x or super+w just opens it in switcher mode and I am not able to switch between two modes with Ctrl+Space/Ctrl+Tab.

I didn't find any issue in the journalctl's output. I have no idea how to handle it.

There is no separate mode anymore. You can launch and switch from the one single mode.

Thank you for your fast reply. I've been using your extension since 2-3 years ago and I am so familiar with its modes. But after updating to Gnome 3.38.4 and switcher 32, I am not able to switch between launcher/switcher modes. The extension just runs in switcher mode. I think it is a Gnome issue, not the app as Gnome does not load a new instance of nautilus for example.

As below shows, I have no way to switch! Screenshot from 2021-03-02 12-20-20

You can do ctrl+enter to launch new instances of apps that are already open. I should probably add a new onboarding text about the changes (although I don't know if anybody reads them)

Thanks a million, It really helps. :+1: I did read it several times but no clue about ctrl+enter.

P.S. Ctrl+Enter doesn't close the popup, is there any hack to apply in the code to run a new instance and then close the popup.
