Hello! This might be a Wayland issue. Can you show the output of echo $XDG_SESSION_TYPE?

Your screenshot is a bit weird because it looks like it was taken in the Activities overview (Super key), is it on purpose?

After input

echo $XDG_SESSION_TYPE

it returns

wayland

I took screenshot in activaties overview on purpose to show 3 windows in a time.

By the way, what should I do to use fullscreen in wayland environment?

Can you try with x11 instead of Wayland? Here is a tutorial: https://helpdesk.psionline.com/hc/en-gb/articles/13470827149332-How-to-perform-the-switch-from-the-Wayland-display-server-to-Xorg-X11-on-Linux-Ubuntu-22-04-LTS.

Wayland is known to have some bugs with many programs, and the solution is often just to switch back to x11.

By the way, what should I do to use fullscreen in wayland environment?
I don't know, but let's see first if the bug is caused by Wayland or something else :-)

You're welcome! But then I need to investigate if we can solve this on Wayland :'-)
