But it works if you don't drag the window while hitting the relevant keyboard shortcut right? Yes, if you are NOT holding/dragging a window, then the desktop will switch as expected. Thanks. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 444696 *** |
SUMMARY In wayland on 5.21, you cannot drag a window to another desktop using KWin shortcuts to switch the desktop. The shortcuts don't work while holding a window, but function fine if you aren't. Shortcut located at: Settings -> Workspace -> Shortcuts -> System Services -> KWin -> "Switch One Desktop to the Right" STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Bind Switch One Desktop to the Right to any key, I use Meta+Tab. 2. Next, try to "drag" a window to a different desktop by holding a window and then hitting the next-desktop key. 3. When you press your "Switch One Desktop to the Right" key, nothing will happen if you are holding a window. If you are not holding a window, then the desktop will switch as expected. OBSERVED RESULT Switch-Desktop shortcut keys do not work while holding/dragging a window in Wayland. The key functions as expected otherwise. EXPECTED RESULT Switch Desktop shortcut keys should switch to your next desktop while dragging a window, allowing you to drag a window to a different desktop.
