Description Vladimir Yerilov 2022-02-09 15:12:25 UTC 
SUMMARY
***
If I press Meta to open Kickoff menu (from Latte dock) when Overview is active, new empty window appears shifting others. That's weird, menu shouldn't be considered a window.
***


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Add Kickoff to Latte, set "Press meta to activate application launcher" in Latte settings, check if it works
2. Add a shortcut in Kickoff settings, e.g. Alt+F1, check if it works
3. Invoke Overview mode, press Alt+F1, press Meta

OBSERVED RESULT
Nothing happens on Alt+F1 (that's fine), new empty window "Latte Dock" appears on pressing Meta (weird).

EXPECTED RESULT
Latte's Kickoff menu shouldn't be considered a window by Overview effect.

I'm on X11, btw. No idea if this also happens on Wayland.
