Description Davide 2018-10-26 21:14:18 UTC
SUMMARY
I cannot use the thumbnail aside desktop effect.
openining the menu to change its settings shows that the shortcut is setted on the custom one, that is empty. selecting the default one (meta+ctlr+t), applying the changes and then trying out the shortcut WITHOUT closing the menu makes it work, even on other apps. 
but by closing the menu, it doesn't work anymore. opening again the menu shown again the shorcut being setted on the custom one, that is empty. the same happens by setting a custom shortcut, it works as long as the menu is open, falls back to empy state if closed. 

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
don't really now. I've tried fedora kde in a VM and the shortcut works. something must be interfering, must I cannot really find what, I've tried disinstalling themes, script, latte-dock, other exntenions, but I cannot get it to work in any way


OBSERVED RESULT


EXPECTED RESULT
it should work as it does on fresh installs in VM

SOFTWARE VERSIONS
(available in About System)
KDE Plasma Version: 
KDE Frameworks Version: 
Qt Version: 

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

mayba a way to run the script via a custom shortcut that can be added to the generic custom keyboard ones would work, but I don't know how to retrieve the command for this.
