Bug ID: 417715
Summary: Overview mode force exits when an app is closed in
Plasma 5.18.0
Product: kwin
Version: 5.16.0
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: kwin-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: michal.dybc...@gmail.com
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
Closing an app in overview mode force exits out of this mode plus it generates
randomly some weird window layer bugs.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Update to Plasma 5.18.0
2. Open a few app windows.
3. Trigger an overview mode
4. Close an app from overview mode (find and click on X button)
OBSERVED RESULT
Overview mode ends abruptly instead continuing. Additionally, it creates some
weird buggy effects:
- once it blocked FF on a top layer without activating "keep window on top" and
I wasn't able to use any other apps because they keep stacking below, "keep
window on top" was useless against that, I had to close and open the app to fix
it
- once it also blocked the window (Spotify), I couldn't minimize it or move to
another screen, but when I used Minimize All, it fixed this issue.
EXPECTED RESULT
When closing an app in overview mode, overview mode should stay as it was
always in the past. This way overview mode is an excellent way to selectively
mass close open windows.
