Alt+Tab on Ubuntu 17.10 #126

Closed Ads20000 closed 6 years ago

Ads20000 commented 6 years ago

Alt+Tab on Ubuntu 17.10 (with Ubuntu's modified GNOME session on Wayland) doesn't work. It leaves a bar at the top showing the desktop background and clicking results in clicking the part of the UI a few pixels below the actual mouse cursor.

If you run the game with --fullscreen-exclusive does that modify things at all?

Ads20000 commented 6 years ago

0AD doesn't work with Alt+Tab either (well, the unofficial snap doesn't) so may be a wider issue (probably with games in general and Wayland)... Civ V, Portal, DotA 2 don't work, Undertale does

sh run.sh --fullscreen-exclusive yields ERROR: main.cpp:698 : unrecognized arg: '--fullscreen-exclusive

Scratch that - Alt + Tab doesn't work for these games on X11 either.

This is a bug in GNOME 3.26, see here for the GNOME bug and see here for progress for fixing the bug in Ubuntu 17.10 and 18.04.

The workaround for now is to go to AA's settings and uncheck fullscreen, then restart the game.
