Gnome 46.alpha #213

Open nater1983 opened 6 months ago

nater1983 commented 6 months ago

I have tested this extension so far today on Gnome 46.alpha by adding in 46 to the shell numbers and it looks like the Alt+Tab mite not be working correctly. Just an fyi.

Slackware Current Gnome Shell 46.Alpha

dsheeler commented 6 months ago

I have no idea what's coming. Switch to 45 was pretty big, so I hope this isn't too big!

nater1983 commented 6 months ago

I am with you I will keep you updated as I compile more of Gnome 46 for Slackware.

nater1983 commented 5 months ago

bind to switch-windows is working but bind to switch-applications is not so far on version 70 with shell 46

dsheeler commented 5 months ago

@nater1983, I just made https://github.com/dmo60/CoverflowAltTab/tree/213-gnome-46alpha for porting to 46. It might be working in 46. Could you try it out, too? My testing environment is flaky (I can't change settings, don't know why, but the settings window never displays).

This is on a fully updated Slackware Current System with all Gnome 46 Components. As well as glib 2.79.0 a899933acbced812355528fb62d82283fe6dae47 and gjs 1.79.2

And I forgot the settings window does show up as well.

dsheeler commented 5 months ago

Are the windows rotated oddly? Is that what you're showing with the images?

nater1983 commented 5 months ago

Na I am just trying to show that using alt-tab is working now. :)

dsheeler commented 5 months ago

Wonderful!!! Thanks for trying so quickly!

dsheeler commented 5 months ago

Also good to know prefs don't work for you. I just tried to look for an error with journalctl and the prefs window coredumps, but I can't figure out why by looking at it. Betting there's a change that just affects prefs, but we'll see!

dsheeler commented 5 months ago

Did it just work for you?

nater1983 commented 5 months ago

The settings have always worked for me. Even when the alt-tab function wasnt working.

dsheeler commented 5 months ago

Oh, sorry misread your earlier post! Hmm, well, that's good. I'm running GnomeOS in Boxes. No idea why settings are crashing here

nater1983 commented 5 months ago

humm now I kinda want to see what your seeing..... I am downloading GnomeOS 46.alpha....

dsheeler commented 5 months ago

Oh cool!

nater1983 commented 4 months ago

Still works without problems in 46.beta

It seems this is freezing the tab..i.e. runs over all the link on a webpage or tabs on the editor(gvim). I have installed it from gnome-extension website. I am in fedora40, gnome 46.

I reported the issue here so that the gnome46 related topics are in one place. Hope that is OK.

dsheeler commented 3 months ago

@rudrab Could you possibly make a screencast? Or more specifics on how to reproduce?

rudrab commented 2 months ago

@dsheeler I was trying that...but since the event is random, I haven't managed a screencast yet. Is there any other way (e.g, dmesg output) to show the event?

dsheeler commented 2 months ago

@rudrab, while I'm developing the extension, if I encounter an issue like a crash or a freeze while using, I eventually get to a terminal and run:

journalctl -rb /usr/bin/gnome-shell

and search that output for 'Coverflow' to find error messages (the -r means newest messages first, and -b just limits log to events since last boot).

So if this randomly happens, maybe try that.

But so what happens exactly? You are pressing alt-tab but at some point the tab affects a specific window?
