Steps to reproduce (if you know): Update Super + A

Other Notes: Video please revert this update and make grid smaller as before

This happened to me as well. I fixed it by running gsettings reset org.gnome.shell app-picker-layout

It worked after disabling Dash to dock. There's a conflict between these two. Do you use dash to dock?

I don't use dash to dock.

Gzman commented 3 years ago

I don't have any animation bugs, however: Super + a doesn't work consistently; sometimes it shows no apps and if I press it again it works again.

If I re-enable Dash to Dock or Floating Dock the

Will happens again. Also, if I move some apps and change the order in apps grid this issue will happens too.

VentGrey commented 3 years ago

@Gzman I also have the same bug with super + a. I think this may be caused by a downstream patch onto Pop! Session, because installing the default gnome-session makes the problem go away. If any dev reads this they could guide us onto providing logs or something :3

mmstick commented 3 years ago

I'm not seeing any issues with Super + a, and gnome-session is not installed.

mmstick commented 3 years ago

Your package logs show 3.38.1, but have you updated to 3.38.2 yet?

VentGrey commented 3 years ago

I'm using 3.38.2

Also no extensions like dash to dock or others installed, still Super + a shows nothing:

..however: Super + a doesn't work consistently..

I have to correct myself; it works consistently but I can reproduce the blank activity view the following way:

  1. Press Super + a -> shows all apps in the activity view
  2. Press Super + a again OR Press (9-dot-button) -> toogles to current workspace in the activity view
  3. Press Super -> shows current workspace
  4. Press Super + a -> shows blank activity view, shows neither all apps nor any open apps in the activity view

Is that behaviour intentional? Also Super + h and Super + d don't work for me too.

jacobgkau commented 3 years ago

There is an upstream issue on GNOME's bug tracker for Super-A not working consistently: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/-/issues/3451

A fix has already been merged upstream: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/-/merge_requests/1532

That means this issue will be fixed with the next minor update of GNOME Shell, if the fix is not backported into Pop!_OS sooner. (According to this page, GNOME Shell 3.38.3 is supposed to release around January 9th.)
