Description Victor B. Gonzalez 2020-08-27 13:33:32 UTC
Changing Window Management > Task Switcher > Main > Shortcuts > All windows > Reverse to Alt+` is never applied. 

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Change the "All windows" > "Reverse" shortcut to Alt+`
2. Click "Reassign" in the Conflict dialog

OBSERVED RESULT
The "Apply" button on the window remains greyed out. Pressing Alt+` seems to be stuck to switching the "Current application" behavior instead of applying to "All windows".

EXPECTED RESULT
Pressing Alt+` continues to walk backwards in the Task Switcher.

I've discovered if I just restart kwin_x11 e.g., "kwin_x11 --replace", the "All windows" shortcut will be picked up.

Here the Apply button always remains greyed out when changing task switcher shortcuts.
