Bug ID: 478604
Summary: Can't ESCape or quit windows preview by keyboard after
clicking a program icon or hitting shortcut to
activate present-windows on a task bar
Classification: Plasma
Product: kwin
Version: 5.27.8
Platform: Kubuntu
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: major

Taskbar icons I'm talking about
SUMMARY
Can't escape windows preview by using keyboard ESC button when I hit icon of an
opened application (with multiple windows opened). I can't leave preview mode
except by using mouse, which is annoying.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Install any distro with Plasma v5.25 or above
2. Open any application with multiple windows
3. Then use taskbar icons to get present-windows-like windows preview effect
4. Do this repeatedly until ESCape doesn't work anymore
OBSERVED RESULT
Failure to close present windows
EXPECTED RESULT
Closing present-windows both by ESC or by hitting bound "Activate Task Manager
Entry" shortcuts.
Before Plasma 5.25 exiting present-windows view (activated by using "Activate
Task Manager Entry" shortcut) worked perfect both by using ESCape or the same
shortcut used to open present-windows.
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux/KDE Plasma: Kubuntu 23.10
KDE Plasma Version: 5.27.8
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.110.0
Qt Version: 5.15.10
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Plasma v5.25 heavily reworked desktop-effects and introduced a lot of bugs. It
impacted my experience negatively.
