[Bug 878492] Re: Unity 2d uses F10 shortcut to show menu and this is wrong
This is unbelievably inconvenient and IMO shows the dire lack of use testing put into unity2d. This is a showstopper IMO and unity2d should NEVER have been released in this state. The fact it STILL hasn't been fixed after over two weeks shows just how little importance the Ubuntu project places on unity2d and its users. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/878492 Title: Unity 2d uses F10 shortcut to show menu and this is wrong To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/unity-2d/+bug/878492/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 878492] Re: Unity 2d uses F10 shortcut to show menu and this is wrong
Are there actually *any* hotkeys in unity-2d which *aren't* hard-coded? I could easily adapt it to use the same system as the other keys, but there doesn't seem to be one. And adding a whole new hotkey system in a patch without checking with the maintainers seems like overkill. I could also just use a plain DConf setting for the keystroke, but I can't find an accessor in Qt to turn a string representing a keystroke into the Qt::Key and modifier used for that keystroke. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/878492 Title: Unity 2d uses F10 shortcut to show menu and this is wrong To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unity-2d/+bug/878492/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Understood. We need to see how Unity is doing this.
