This seems to be a more general problem with extensions showing windows/frames. This search-light extension is also not working with pop-shell in tiled mode. Although it works if there aren't any windows present on the workspace (this is also the case for pano extension).

yes same happening with pano extension... if pop-shell has option to manually add ignore words/extensions in settings then it would be good so user can add to ignore others extensions

[data-flux]

So the way exceptions currently work means they need a WM_CLASS and WM_TITLE, and Search-Light and Pano have neither. xprop on either of them yields: XdndProxy(WINDOW): window id # 0x20000b (the same result as xprop on the task bar)

Pop OS gets these values through Meta.Window.get_title() and Meta.Window.get_wm_class() However, the popups provided by these extensions do not get listed in the Meta windows.

Maybe that will give someone more to work with, I'm not familiar enough with gjs to do anything with that, unfortunately.

Note: I found it also works if a window on a different monitor is focused.
