Not compatible with Gnome 42 (Ubuntu 22.04 LTS)

[leinardi]

The extension is not compatible with the latest stable version of Gnome:

https://extensions.gnome.org/extension/770/force-quit/

To reproduce the issue try to install the extension on Ubuntu 22.04 LTS.

Hi, I installed the update and the extension icon is shown correctly on Gnome 42 but it does not work properly:
when I click the icon the cursor changes to a cross but I can't select anything nor I can cancel the action so the only solution is to restart. I tried twice and the result is the same.

Having the same issue described by @leinardi on Gnome 42 Arch

When it gets stuck, nothing is logged from journalctl -f /usr/bin/gnome-shell /usr/bin/gjs.

To get out of it without closing your work, from a virtual terminal (e.g. Ctrl+Alt+F3), run pkill '^gnome-shell$'.

This should work now, please update the extension from the website. Many thanks for the reports! :)

Thanks for the update! It does indeed work now for me, and the highlighting is nice. But there are a few bugs:

• The cursor is not a crosshair when I hover over text elements in windows (and window elements react to hover)
• If I click on Gnome's top bar, the crosshair stops, but highlighting continues, Esc no longer cancels, and a window click still kills. I have to get out of it by clicking on the extension icon again then pressing Esc.
• Clicking on the extension icon, then hovering over a window, and repeating, increases the highlighting intensity

Updated yet again (thanks to EasyScreenCast/EasyScreenCast#334 ), this time it should fix the bug. However the previous version introduced a behaviour which allowed to quit windows after pressing the super key and selecting from the overview, will try to see if I can add that back again

Closing this PR, created #26 for the activity overview feature
