This gesture to switch the focused app was already a bit of a compromise solution at the time it was added, its clunky way to work (3fg long press, then taps with a 4th finger to switch application) was pretty much picking up the remains of our limited wiggle room (sticking to 3fg/4fg global gestures, since 2fg are application domain). But then directional 3fg gestures took prevalence, and made it easier to switch between applications. This small gesture remained a bit of an easter egg, largely unused and unknown. Fast forward to today, and it's being noticed in a bad way. The changes to event handling and delivery to actions has made this gesture take prevalence over the wee-bit-more-popular 3fg swipe gestures, making those never become active and never trigger. While a gesture framework is being investigated that might help handle these situations (or, in a less undefined manner), this doesn't seem like a case worth going out of our way to hack around until that is in place. We can remove this, and make all WM interactions go through the 3fg directional gestures.

GNOME Shell
GNOME Shell provides core user interface functions for the GNOME desktop, like switching to windows and launching applications. GNOME Shell takes advantage of the capabilities of modern graphics hardware and introduces innovative user interface concepts to provide a visually attractive and easy to use experience.
For more information about GNOME Shell, including instructions on how to build GNOME Shell from source and how to get involved with the project, see the project wiki.
Bugs should be reported to the GNOME bug tracking system. Please refer to the Schedule wiki page to see the supported versions.
Contributing
To contribute, open merge requests at https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell.
Commit messages should follow the GNOME commit message
guidelines. If a merge request
fixes an existing issue, it is good practice to append the full issue URL
to each commit message. Try to always prefix commit subjects with a relevant
topic, such as panel:
or status/network:
, and it's always better to write
too much in the commit message body than too little.
Default branch
The default development branch is main
. If you still have a local
checkout under the old name, use:
git checkout master
git branch -m master main
git fetch
git branch --unset-upstream
git branch -u origin/main
git symbolic-ref refs/remotes/origin/HEAD refs/remotes/origin/main
