Please change the super+s binding. Or at least provide a way to
customize it. I use it to control emacs, and as it stands I'm disabling
indicators because of it.

[Bug 334544] Re: indicator applet needs keyboard shortcut

[Brett Johnson]

I highly recommend AGAINST using Super+S as it's already the default
shortcut for the window grouping plugin in compiz and has been for
sometime.  Just went to enable it on my maverick build and Super+S is
bringing up the indicator applet instead of window grouping as the
indicator applet is taking precedence.

Ev][L's post above details what I believe is a workaround they found for
the problem but I couldn't find anyone who voiced the problem in the
first place above hence my post (if I missed it please excuse the double
post).

Again though - alt + control + s makes more sense over super + s.  Alt +
F1 brings up the Applications menu.  Maybe Super + F1 would work also?
Either way the current Super + S is conflicting.

FIGURED IT OUT


Ghetto workaround time ready? Right click on it, remove from panel go in to 
compiz choose disabled for the select single window keyboard binding then click 
close. Re-enable the select single window and VIOLA you can now group and tab 
windows as you please. Of course you'll be restarting with init 6 and what not 
or your preferred method, but hey it got the job done and until you find a 
better solution then my word is the law!

[Bug 334544] Re: indicator applet needs keyboard shortcut

[Dylan McCall]

Given that we're going to have a single indicator applet in the near
future, instead of two, another option for default is Alt+F3, or maybe
Alt+F5. It rhymes nicely with the shortcut for opening the main menu.
Alt+F* feels like a nice convention going forwards for keyboard
shortcuts that relate to the panel (with the unfortunate exception of
Alt+F4).

Still not wonderfully discoverable, but I think it would be a hair more
discoverable than Super+S given that we basically never use the super
key for shortcuts by default (and that no normal user knows that a
particular indicator is the Session indicator).

[Bug 334544] Re: indicator applet needs keyboard shortcut

[Jan Vornberger]

I find the choice of Super+S as the keyboard shortcut for the indicator
applet very unfortunate and would like to voice my support for changing
it.

I agree that a keyboard shortcut for this functionality is good to have,
but it will be rarely used throught the day, so please don't "waste" a
handy shortcut like Super+S on this. Make it a two modifier thing.
Lucian Adrian Grijincu mentioned Ctrl+Alt+S (in line with things like
Ctrl+Alt+D to show the desktop) which seems to me like a good choice.
>From what I can tell it also doesn't conflict with anything on my Lucid
Lynx installation. It is also a more universal solution, since there are
still a few users with keyboards that don't have a super key.

As the author of Bluetile ( http://www.bluetile.org/ ) I would
appreciate this change, since Bluetile's standard keyboard shortcuts
already include Super+S. If this will not be changed in Ubuntu, I guess
I will have to switch to alternative keys. But again, I find it a waste
to use a 'premium' shortcut like Super+S for a task that will be rarely
performed.

[Jan Minář]

Even on a local X session, the press of the "s" key brings up the
Indicator Applet *Session* menu. Pressing the "m" key doesn't have any
adverse effect.

Restarting the Indicator Applet Session by removing from the panel and
re-adding it (as suggested by one of the comments) does not solve the
issue.

I have installed the 0.3.7 version from
, and it solves the
issue.

[Lachlan F]

I am having a similar issue as #29.

I have just installed Lucid Beta 2 (x64).

The system functions normally when used locally, but any kind of remote
X access (VNC, X over SSH, NX) causes keyboard problems. Any press of
the "s" key in any application highlights the Indicator applet session
menu with Shutdown, Restart, Logout etc and the m key highlights the
Indicator applet for mail.

If these applets are removed from the panel then the keys work as
normal, and if the applets are added again the keys malfunction again.

I have just upgraded to Lucid, using a remote VNC connection.

After reboot, I have discovered that whenever I press the 's' key in a
VNC connection (served by vinagre, or Xvnctightserver), the indicator
applet gets launched, so now I cannot type "sudo" in a terminal, nor any
other word with s.

It seems that VNC servers doesn't support well the "Super" key...

As there are keyboards lacking the Super key, could some other key
combination be used?

For example:
* Alt+Ctrl+L is used to lock the screen
* Alt+Ctrl+D is used to show the desktop

Wouldn't Alt+Ctrl+S be better (from an accesibilty point of view) than
Super+S?

This change doesn't fix all other keyboard navigation issues for
libindicator based applets reported in bug #519195. That bug was marked
as a duplicate of this, bug keyboard is still a mess (while that bug
summary couuld needs to be updated).

To test, unplug your mouse[1], press Super+S and try to switch back to
focus, for instance, your desktop.

[1] this is a basic test rule for any GNOME application or component,
software unusable with keyboard only is a poor quality software for
GNOME standards.

[Vish]

We have Ctrl+Q to quit the app, 
Ctrl+W to close window and also Alt+F4 which closes windows.
Ctrl+S is Save on the other hand. If we use Super+S , Different accelerator but 
same letter would be a bit confusing.

We could use Super+Q which would be atleast a bit similar to quiting apps. 
But, The menu has it named "Shut down" and in future to "Switch Off" , we might 
have users filing bugs & complaining that Super+S is better.

The best option would be Super+Q to bring up the drop-down [and in the
future , once the menu is open shortcut "S" for the selecting Switch Off
, "L" for Logout , "R" for Restart. probably "E" for Sleep or "P" if
using E is confusing with expo]

[Bug 334544] Re: indicator applet needs keyboard shortcut

[Luca Ferretti]

IMHO this bug should be fixed in two steps:
  * fix Compiz in order to use Ctrl+Alt+Tab in a sane way (i.e. as metacity)
  * fix libindicator based stuff to act like real menu widget

Comiz has too many a11y related issue: no good keyboard navigation (see
bug #228343 for ctrl+alt+tab), no audio feedback for keyboard (see bug
#514943), no orca magnifier... IMHO, for the sake of impaired people, we
should disable compiz to be automatically enabled if supported by
graphic card, and run it on demand.

Libindicate stuff, instead, should implement keyboard navigator ASAP.
Note that in Lucid we have now 3 libindicate based applet: the "system"
indicator (shutdown, reboot, logout...), te "me" indicator and the
messaging notification indicator. We can't add a global shortcut for
each one. We should make basic keyboard navigation working (focus the
panel, use Tab to focus the applet, use Space to activate it).

PS I've missed this bug previously, so I reported a separate one for
libindicate issue: #519195

[Bug 334544] Re: indicator applet needs keyboard shortcut

[alex kalderimis]

This is the one thing that's keeping the applet off my panel. It seems
to me that this should be seen as an absolutely fundamental part of
desktop functionality, and any environment with aspirations towards
accessibility should treat it seriously. More over, it should ideally
have as minimal a key combo as possible. My preference is for
Alt-[ESCAPE], which carries the connotation of exiting.

Just foe the record. We are not against fixing this it just hasn't  
been fixed. Infinite time/money it would be fixed.

[Bug 334544] Re: indicator applet needs keyboard shortcut

[Roman Yepishev]

Live example:
mouse stopped working (possibly, Alps touchpad problem or remote VNC 
connection, cannot reproduce reliably). Decided to log out and log in again.
Alt+F1 - gives menu, System Help & Support, About Gnome and About Menu 
items, no link to log out.
Closing all windows, Alt+F4 on the root window - nothing
Power button/Ctrl+Alt+Del: Shut Down, Restart, Suspend, Hibernate...
Opening gnome-terminal, killing Xorg solved the logout problem.

By default with Compiz effects enabled, Ctrl-Alt-TAB brings Window
switcher, not desktop/panel switching, so it is impossible to get to the
applet via keyboard. With desktop effects disabled this is possible, but
applet does not show any border in default Human theme around itself.

Is "milestone: ubuntu-9.10 → none" means that this idea is abandoned?
Indicator applet without key bindings is useless! I think that it's big
lack in user experience. Who has time to access to
Empathy/Gwibber/Evolution by mouse? When Ubuntu didn't have indicator we
click Empathy/Gwibber/Evolution by clicking on its taskbar icons. Now we
have additional step - we must click on applet, then click item from the
text list. It isn't improvement - it's obstacle.

[Martin Olsson]

The most important thing is that you can open Applications and then use
"right arrow" three times to get to this menu. If I had to pick a key
though I would pick the SUPER-key (aka. the Windows key); but maybe the
SUPER-key should be saved for a more common use case though. The SUPER-
key is nice though because it's conceptually reserved for the shell
(i.e. it will pretty much never be bound to something inside an
application window).

Good that a key-combination is being proposed.  My initial reaction to
C-M-s is that it is locale-specific and likely to be undiscoverable.
Wonder if mvo has any thoughts on this issue.

Proposing CTRL-ALT-S for the session menu: it is really about /s/tatus,
/s/ession and /s/ystem, so an S sounds like the right choice.

Now that the session menu (fusa replacement) is using an indicator, this
is rather critical.  There will be no other way for a user to
shutdown/suspend/logout.
