***

See https://community.kde.org/Guidelines_and_HOWTOs/Debugging/How_to_create_useful_crash_reports
***


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Set "Walk Through Windows (Reverse)" to Meta+Shift+Tab
2. Push Meta+Shift+Tab
3. While holding Meta+Shift, continue to press Tab in order to walk through

OBSERVED RESULT

It does not walk through. It only goes one step and won't go further. I have to release Meta+Shift and press Meta+Shift+Tab again. 

EXPECTED RESULT

It should work the same as Meta+Tab, just in the opposite direction.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux: Linux 5.16.4
KDE Plasma Version: 5.23.5
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.90.0
Qt Version: 5.15.2

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

Assigning the shortcut instead to Meta+Shift+` works fine.

Can confirm.

Comment 2 Vlad Zahorodnii 2022-02-02 14:26:11 UTC

Alt+Shift+Tab works as expected.

Comment 3 Vlad Zahorodnii 2022-02-02 15:15:32 UTC

Seems to be related to handling of Backtab key.

Not for me, unfortunately.

Comment 5 Aron Griffis 2023-03-09 20:03:03 UTC

I'm seeing the same.

Fedora 38 pre-beta
KDE Plasma 5.27.2
KDE Frameworks 5.103.0
Qt 5.15.8
Linux 6.2.2

Let me know if there's anything additional that would be helpful.

I can confirm that the issue is not present when I use a US only layout.

Comment 8 Yao Mitachi 2023-05-14 00:38:38 UTC

This works for me now too, once I manually set "walk through windows (reverse)" to meta+shift+tab.
