![]() We currently track windows via MetaWorkspace's ::window-added and ::window-removed signals. Those aren't emitted for override-redirect windows though, as those aren't actually located on any workspace (see https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/blob/gnome-41/src/core/window.c#L1322). While that shouldn't be an issue as there's no good reason to look up the ShellApp of an OR window, extensions can make modifications that result in OR windows ending up in places that assume that every window has an associated ShellApp. We can either - accept that extensions break stuff (including badly) - carefully handle app-less windows everywhere - extend tracking to OR windows Opt for the last option, as that's the most user-friendly and least disruptive one. It's also simpler to track ::window-created and ::unmanaged, as we don't have to track workspaces or windows moving between workspaces. https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/-/issues/4751 Part-of: <https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/-/merge_requests/2029> |

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.
