Workspace switcher popup doesn't close automatically on Gnome 42.1 on Wayland #227

Open tstirrat15 opened 2 years ago

tstirrat15 commented 2 years ago

Description

I use ctrl + alt + <arrow> to swap between workspaces. In previous versions of gnome, when I released those keys, the overlay that shows which workspace is focused would close itself and I could return to whatever I was doing on the target screen. Currently, after I press the key combo, the switcher stays on screen, and it catches all keyboard events until I hit esc.

It's workable, because all I have to do is hit esc, but it's additional friction and is frustrating.

Please let me know if there's additional context that I can provide.

Sounds like a duplicate of #219. Which GNOME version do you use?

ebeem commented 2 years ago

I would like to also know if you're using xorg or wayland I think it's still buggy under wayland for some reason.

Of course this is still an upstream issue.

reify-tanner-stirrat commented 2 years ago

Yep, it's a duplicate of #219 and seems to be because ubuntu 22.04 hasn't taken gnome 42.1 yet. I'm still on 42. Thank you for pointing me in that direction!

tstirrat15 commented 2 years ago

I've been using Wayland, which apparently has problems with the most recent Nvidia drivers as well. Sounds like this is a bleeding-edge tax kind of thing.

I'm on 42.1 and just went from X11 to Wayland and still have this issue, fwiw.

tstirrat15 commented 2 years ago

I'm reopening this as I'm seeing the same.

ElijahLynn commented 2 years ago

I'm reopening this as I'm seeing the same.

Thanks for validating. Should we update the title to include that it is Gnome 42 on Wayland?

tstirrat15 commented 2 years ago

Yep, done.

tstirrat15 commented 2 years ago

I just received version 42.1-0ubuntu1 of mutter in an apt upgrade and now it's behaving as desired. Closing again.

mzur commented 2 years ago

Can confirm. It wasn't GNOME Shell 42.1 that fixed this issue but mutter 42.1.

dseomn commented 2 years ago

I'm seeing this issue again. Debian testing, mutter 42.2-1, gnome-shell 42.2-1.

mzur commented 1 year ago

We have GNOME Shell 42.4 now (on Ubuntu). Does anyone still see this behavior with the newest version?

dseomn commented 1 year ago

I'm still seeing this with mutter 42.4-2 and gnome-shell 42.4-1+build1.

Does anyone see this in GNOME Shell 45?

tstirrat15 commented 8 months ago

What I'm experiencing in v45 is that the tiling works (I have a 2x2 setup), moving between them with the arrow keys works, but there's some animation weirdness where if the layout is:

1 2
3 4

moving vertically from 1-3 or 2-4 is animated as a horizontal swipe. It's a little visually jarring but not broken.

EDIT: whoops. I'm responding to the wrong issue. I can create a new issue with the above if it's desired.

The preview tile seems to be working just fine for me - it disappears without any further interaction from me.

mzur commented 8 months ago

The movement animation is one of the things that won't work until GNOME Shell 45.1, so that's expected :wink:
