Alright. I understand why software wouldn't support such combos by default. Because both keys are modifiers and not normal keys. That said, with more work it is usually possible to make software respond to modifier taps, as we have done in Unity before. ** Changed in: gnome-shell (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => Wishlist -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-shell in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1725078 Title: Can't set Ctrl+Shift as a shortcut Status in gnome-shell package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Can't set Ctrl+Shift (and many other key combinations) as a shortcut in new and shiny Ubuntu 17.10.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1725078] Re: Can't set Ctrl+Shift as a shortcut
I can't check because I already uninstalled 17.10 and will not install it ever again. As far as I remember, installing nvidia drivers switched to Xorg automatically, and I still couldn't assign Ctrl+Shift shortcut. I was able to assign it when I installed Unity on 17.10, but there still was an issue. Ctrl+Shift worked, but it made Ctrl+Shift+C and other shortcuts like that stop working. I am on 16.04 now and everything works just perfect. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-shell in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1725078 Title: Can't set Ctrl+Shift as a shortcut Status in gnome-shell package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Can't set Ctrl+Shift (and many other key combinations) as a shortcut in new and shiny Ubuntu 17.10.

Vasya, Try selecting "Ubuntu on Xorg" at the login screen. Does that change your ability to set the shortcut later? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-shell in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1725078 Title: Can't set Ctrl+Shift as a shortcut Status in gnome-shell package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Can't set Ctrl+Shift (and many other key combinations) as a shortcut in new and shiny Ubuntu 17.10.
