Description themillenniumkiller 2024-11-21 05:15:44 UTC 
SUMMARY
Holding Meta + D (Peek at Desktop) keyboard shortcut, makes the windows shaking, sometimes the windows become invisible, and even if you switch to them with Alt+Tab, you still can't see them.

Same with Meta + W (Toggle Overview) - the workspace overview shakes when you hold them.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Hold Meta + D, or Meta + W

OBSERVED RESULT
Shaking and sometimes transparent (invisible) windows
Shaking workspace overview

EXPECTED RESULT
It should peek at desktop when the user releases the keys, but instead it just keeps peeking at desktop. Same with Toggle Overview shortcut.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

This is intentional, and allows the animations to be canceled in the middle if you've changed your mind. If you don't want to see your windows vibrating, don't hold down the keyboard shortcuts for these features. :)
