Tile settings lost after locking and unlocking screen

Open hyperair opened this issue 5 years ago • 0 comments

Expected behavior

Window tiled state is remembered between the screen being locked and unlocked

Actual behavior

All windows become untiled (I have to manually trigger "Toggle Tile" on all my tiled windows after unlocking the screen)

Steps to reproduce the behavior

  1. Set "Auto Tile Window Types" to []
  2. Open 3 windows
  3. Tile them all using Super+X on all of them.
  4. Lock the screen
  5. Unlock the screen
  6. Try using any of the tiling window shortcuts (Super+Shift+Return for instance) -- none of them work because windows are no longer considered "tiled"
  7. Repeat step 3 to restore their tiled state

I suspect the issue is that gnome-shell unloads all extensions when the screen is locked, and loads them again after the screen is unlocked. Some method of storing the window tiled state in the running gnome-shell process between reloads is necessary.

(Recommended) GNOME version

3.34.1
