When using a keyboard shortcut to switch workspaces, about 50% of the time the graphic gets stuck on the screen. We’re using these commands with a keyboard shortcut: /usr/share/budgie-desktop/visualspace/visualspace prev /usr/share/budgie-desktop/visualspace/visualspace next and sometimes the graphic of the workspaces will stay on screen until we reswitch workspaces. Happens on all of our desktops here. [Screenshot%20from%202019-03-28%2012_27_26]

Any output if you run this in a terminal? What is the output of gsettings get org.gnome.mutter dynamic-workspaces?

Any output when running either /usr/share/budgie-desktop/visualspace/visualspace prev /usr/share/budgie-desktop/visualspace/visualspace next

No output, just triggers the action. It also keeps focus and doesn’t allow anything else to be clickable, but clicking on the switcher does nothing, even though it has a visual hover and click effect. Our keyboard shortcut is ctrl + alt + left or right. It seems if we let go of ctrl + alt before letting go of left or right, it’s reproducible 100% of the time.

Ah, ok. The shortcut is designed, assuming left/right is just tapped. When left/right is pressed in a sticky way, the jumps to previous/next workspace are unpredictable in any case! Not sure how to fix…

Tapping Ctrl will close the switcher though.

Is there some way to just disable it visually entirely? Someone on the team has theirs set to ctrl + shift + 1 for prev and ctrl + shift + 2 for next, and theirs stays locked up even after pressing ctrl or alt again (confirm that fixes it on mine). With those bindings for some reason it needs switched back and forth an extra time to unstick. Would be nice if we could just disable the visual overlay somehow? Appreciate your help!

Open Settings > Keyboard, remove the shortcuts: Move to Workspace left / Move to Workspace right in custom shortcuts. Run the commands: gsettings reset org.gnome.desktop.wm.keybindings switch-to-workspace-right and gsettings reset org.gnome.desktop.wm.keybindings switch-to-workspace-left. Keep in mind that you need to disable these values again, and add the original (Budgie) commands if you need or want to revert. The Budgie…

But i have output for that command: /usr/share/budgie-desktop/visualspace/shownav:240: PyGIDeprecationWarning: Since version 3.11, calling threads_init is no longer needed. See: https://wiki.gnome.org/PyGObject/Threading GObject.threads_init() I also have it reproducible, but thanks for the ctr tap tip, that does make it go away.
