Gnome Desktop: Conflicts with Foresight Addon (maybe doesn't require fix, just documentation) #254

Open

Description

@andythedude

Issue:
An unexpected behavior occurs when switching workspaces on Gnome desktop when "foresight" addon is also active.

it goes into "activities" mode so you have to press "super" once you swap workspaces to interact with that workspace. (adds unnecessary extra keystrokes to your workflow only when Hidamari is active)

Expected behavior:
Pressing a hot key to change workspaces moves you into that workspace without activiating you into "activities" mode

To replicate the issue:

  1. make sure foresight addon is installed and enabled.
  2. make sure hidamari is off, (either do not start or explicity press "quit hidamari".
  3. use hotkey to either swap directly to a worksapce, or move left/right through workspaces
  4. observe it is working as intended.
  5. turn on hidamari
  6. use hotkey to either swap directly to a worksapce, or move left/right through workspaces
  7. observe that it is now in activities mode after moving between workspaces.
