Bug ID: 465867
Summary: Global Shortcuts: unable to snoop on key and all
modifier combinations of key
Classification: Plasma
Product: xdg-desktop-portal-kde
Version: 5.27.0
Platform: Archlinux
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: plasma-b...@kde.org
Reporter: kdeb...@fratti.ch
CC: aleix...@kde.org, jgrul...@redhat.com, n...@kde.org
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
For something like push-to-talk, one might want a dedicated button that works
regardless of which other modifiers are being held. Say, the F13 key. To use
the F13 key through the GlobalShortcuts portal in Mumble (using
https://github.com/mumble-voip/mumble/pull/5976 ) I need to also bind
Shift+F13, Alt+F13, Shift+Alt+F13, Ctrl+F13, ... etc. etc.
This is extremely awkward, and we'd be better off with the implementation
allowing for a flag to say "bind this key and any combinations of this key"
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Build Mumble with the GlobalShortcuts PR
2. Add a shortcut for some key
3. Press shift+that key
OBSERVED RESULT
Shortcut doesn't activate
EXPECTED RESULT
Shortcut has a flag to say "this key is the be all and end all of shortcuts and
if it's pressed whoever listens to it gets told about it", and I get to
push-to-talk
