Window Switching shortcuts break when switching between virtual desktops #14919

Open ariccb opened 2 years ago

ariccb commented 2 years ago

Microsoft PowerToys version

0.51.1

Running as admin

Area(s) with issue?

FancyZones

Steps to reproduce

I like the new shortcuts, however they consistently break when the desktop they're on loses focus. I often switch virtual desktops using the WIN+CTRL+RIGHT (and LEFT) shortcuts, but when back on the right desktop, the shortcut for window switching is broken. I believe they also break when losing focus from remote desktop session, or when the computer goes to sleep, etc. To fix it, you need to grab the window and re-snap BOTH windows back to where you want them, annoying to do multiple times a day.

✔️ Expected Behavior

persistent memory of which zones each window is attached to, so the shortcut always works

❌ Actual Behavior

constantly needing to re-snap windows to desired zone to re-activate the shortcuts.

Other Software

So far i've been using powertoys alongside WindowManager by DeskSoft, but right now activating that program breaks the FancyZones window switching shortcut too. Using version v9.0.2 of WindowManager

I also have this issue. I don't use any other window manager software like DeskSoft.
