That looks like the activities switcher. You're probably pressing
Meta+Q. It shouldn't be getting stuck on your screen though. On my
system simply clicking anywhere inside the activities bar and then
clicking outside of it causes it to go away. You should be able to
press Meta+Q again and that should get rid of too though.<br>
<br>
Activities are great if you need them. They allow you to have
separate layouts for different work flows. I always make a
presentation activity on all my laptops so that I can have a clean
layout with no personal information showing as well as easy access
to my presentations via a custom folder view of my presentations
folder. I also add a larger clock so that I can keep track of time.<br>

<div>Hi all, curious if anyone's seen this before, or know
how to get rid of this plague.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Somehow I randomly trigger this KDE widget board
"feature" on the entire left side of my primary display,
shows a "Default" desktop display, but no idea what it is,
or what it is supposed to do as it does nothing far as I
can tell. I can't get rid of it, I can't identify it, and
it stays on top of most everything, effectively removing
about 20% of my desktop when I trigger it with some
unknown hotkey accidentally. I don't even know what to
call it to google "how to get rid of x".</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>It's super frustrating, this is like the 3rd time I've
done it, and all I can do is restart the desktop to be rid
of it.<br>
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Whoever included this as a "feature" was smoking crack
at the time. See below for a screen shot.<br>

<div>Thanks in advance for clues!
