Pressing ALT+SHIFT+TAB doesn't show a popup

Open yusi1 opened this issue 2 years ago • 6 comments

Pressing ALT+TAB shows a normal popup to switch between windows in the forward direction. But pressing ALT+SHIFT+TAB doesn't show any popup like it would with ALT+TAB, and it just shows the title of what is being selected.

  • Also, doing ALT+TAB and then ALT+SHIFT+TAB does show a popup like normal.
  • Note: Doing WIN+SHIFT+TAB does show a popup.

  • distro?
  • shell version?
  • what other extensions are enabled?

Does the issue persist if you disable all other extensions?

In a terminal, execute:

journalctl /usr/bin/gnome-shell -fo cat

then reproduce the issue and show me the log output.

Also try to install the latest GitHub version.

git clone https://github.com/G-dH/advanced-alttab-window-switcher.git
cd advanced-alttab-window-switcher/[email protected]/
make install

Sorry for not providing that information, here's some more information:

  • Distro: Void Linux
  • Shell Version: 42.3.1
  • Other Extensions: Tray Icons Reloaded, Vitals and Wireguard Indicator

In a terminal, execute:

journalctl /usr/bin/gnome-shell -fo cat

then reproduce the issue and show me the log output.

Sorry, but how would I do this without using journalctl? My distro doesn't use SystemD.

Does the issue persist if you disable all other extensions?

Yes.

Indeed, the issue does not appear when using the Github version.

Thanks for the feedback, the issue was related to the added Show Apps Icon.

No problem, I'm glad that you found the culprit.
