Closed this issue · 1 comments

CPU-Blanc commented

Description

When using Alt+Tab, if Run Previews is checked in Previews Control, the window will briefly open, switch to the next available window, then instantly close, making it impossible to actually select what window you want to switch to; you're only able to switch between the 2 most recent.
Disabling the previews returns the expected behaviour - The window remains open and you can select which window to navigate to

Budgie version

10.9.1

Operating System

EndeavourOS 6.7.5

Steps to reproduce the issue

  • Open 3 or more different windows
  • Ensure Run Previews is checked in Previews Control
  • Hit ALT+TAB
  • Observe the switcher instantly closing

Actual result

Window switcher closes instantly, despite ALT still being depressed.

Expected result

The switcher to remain open so long as ALT is depressed
