Description Rafael Lima 2023-04-25 22:26:31 UTC
SUMMARY
If you have Chromium flatpak installed and you use it in full screen mode (F11), it is not possible to launch the overview effect (Meta+W).

This works with Firefox (snap) in full screen.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Install Chromium flatpak
2. Open a website and switch to full screen (F11)
3. Try to launch the overview effect (Meta+W); notice that it won't work
4. Exit full screen (F11 again)
5. Launch the overview effect; now it will work

OBSERVED RESULT
With Chromium in full screen mode, the overview effect does not work.

EXPECTED RESULT
The overview effect should work with Chromium in full-screen mode, since Firefox already does.

Chromium explicitly disables shortcuts.

Apparently they're changing things
