Where did you set the shortcut for "Enable or disable browse mode"? Which app or part of Plasma owns it? I ask because I can't find it in System Settings > Shortcuts.

Sorry not called "enable or disable browse mode" it's called "toggle overview" and is on meta+w by default.

Comment 4 Nate Graham 2023-01-09 17:00:45 UTC

Thanks. I think this is intentional since the panel begins to become transparent when Overview opens. If you're holding down the shortcut, it's repeatedly opening and closing really fast and never leaving that state. So... don't do that. :) 

FWIW on my system with Wayland, holding it down doesn't repeatedly open and close it.
