Description Andrey 2021-10-04 22:52:31 UTC

SUMMARY
The shortcut doesn't work on Wayland.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Run Plasma under Wayland with at least two activities already defined
2. Open any focused window
2. Hit Meta-Tab several times

OBSERVED RESULT
Activity is seems switching for a moment but returns back immediately.

EXPECTED RESULT
There should be switching between available activities in a loop.

Comment 2 Andrey 2021-10-04 23:03:59 UTC

While testing the patch, hold down Meta and press Tab several times.
Otherwise, it'll trigger other issue with activity switching UI.

[wayland] fix activity switching shortcut (Meta+Tab)

Deletion of intermediate inputWindow is touchy, it interferes with the
switching probably because of focusing stuff.
