Shown the visuals of the issue.

SUMMARY
- The TaskSwitcher does not navigate through the windows of the current application when activated using set shortcut - it rather freezes on the single currently active window tile rather than navigating to different tiles when shortcut key is pressed - both for forward and backward motion.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Press the shortcut key for TaskSwitcher -> Current Application
2. The grid will appear and current window will be highlighted
3. on further key press to navigate it to different tile - the grid will remain frozen on current window and not move to next tile

OBSERVED RESULT


EXPECTED RESULT
The tile selector should move to next tile when key is pressed - rather than remain frozen on the curren tile.
