current kwinrc
also adding my kwinrc; as you can see I added the change here as specified in the FAQ, no dice.
1. lattedockrc is not storing anything related. Latte checks if this is enabled or not directly with kwinrc file 2. Your kwinrc file looks ok from my understanding 3. In my system, latest Latte git version works fine with this 4. Please send your Default layout file to check it out. 5. How do you install Latte git version? Are you building it by yourself? There are big chances the distro repos are outdated. Created attachment 127673 [details]
default layout file
Layout attached. My current install is from the 'kde' overlay on Gentoo using emerge/portage. I'll try building manually and see if that makes a difference.
Building manually doesn't seem to have made a difference. When I use the Super key as part of other shortcuts it works fine, pressing and holding also works as expected. Oddly, when I have nothing else maximized and I press the Super key it makes my top panel turn opaque as though I had just maximized a window or opened the application launcher but the application dashboard does not actually trigger. Application dashboard does work with other manually set shortcuts (Alt + F1 in this case). Application Launchers that work as pop ups, do they work ok? I answer myself... They will work ok... I think I know why this broke. Git commit 0d0b0413bb5be0d0667f3453de3bbe28a3aeb930 by Michail Vourlakos. Committed on 18/04/2020 at 23:24. Pushed by mvourlakos into branch 'master'. activate appletquickitem if it is not expandable --when the user requests to activate an applet that it is not expandable such as DashBoard then only thing that it is possible, it is to forcefully activate it M +16 -3 app/view/containmentinterface.cpp M +2 -0 app/view/containmentinterface.h https://commits.kde.org/latte-dock/0d0b0413bb5be0d0667f3453de3bbe28a3aeb930 |
Created attachment 127671 [details] current lattedockrc I had my Super key set to trigger the KDE Application Dashboard, and one of the recent updates broke that (unsure which one as I was focussed on other things for the past few times I updated). Unsetting and resetting the option in the Latte Configuration menu also produces no changes to lattedockrc. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Enable using super key to trigger application launcher 2. try using it 3. (unsure otherwise; I am using the Dashboard rather than the default lauuncher) OBSERVED RESULT Pressing super key does nothing EXPECTED RESULT Pressing super key triggers application dashboard globally SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Linux/KDE Plasma: Gentoo 5.6.5 - 64bit KDE Plasma Version: 5.18.4 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.69.0 Qt Version: 5.14.2 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION I also tried using the method listed on the Github FAQ for LatteDock, that doesn't make a difference either.
