[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 577532] Re: 1.8 breaks Super (Win) key shortcuts in Gtk apps
I tried a 'Super' shortcut in gedit and the snippets plugin (Ubuntu 10.04) and I noticed that indeed it does not work. You can also set up keyboard shortcuts with System»Preferences»Keyboard shortcuts. I tried setting a shortcut for 'Super'+0 and it worked. Which means that something esoteric might be happening in GTK+ apps and the handling of the key events. I have the feeling that somehow gedit did not receive the shortcut. In the Keyboard Shortcuts the shortcut description does not say 'Super' but 'mod4'. There are other global shortcuts working, such as mod4+s, mod4+w, mod4+e, mod4+n. I strongly believe the issue is not related to xkeyboard-config but rather to keyboard event handling. Some application either does not propagate key events or gedit is not able to capture all key events. I'll mark this as a gedit or gtk+ issue. You can search the gtk+ and gedit bugzilla servers for posibble issues, https://bugzilla.gnome.org/browse.cgi?product=gtk%2B https://bugzilla.gnome.org/browse.cgi?product=gedit I strongly suggest to file a bug report for gedit on bugzilla.gnome.org so that the gedit developers have a good look at this. Also check with compiz disabled whether mod4 is OK; even if 3D effects have little to do with keyboard handling, compiz makes use of shortcuts and it may somehow interfere with the key handling. ** Also affects: gedit Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Changed in: xkeyboard-config (Ubuntu) Status: New = Invalid -- 1.8 breaks Super (Win) key shortcuts in Gtk apps https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/577532 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xkeyboard-config in ubuntu. ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp

Thanks for the detailed explanation. I'll go ahead and post the bug for gedit as you suggest.

Actually, I've posted this against gtk+ instead, since it's not a Gedit-specific problem: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=623421 ** Bug watch added: GNOME Bug Tracker #623421 https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=623421 -- 1.8 breaks Super (Win) key shortcuts in Gtk apps https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/577532 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xkeyboard-config in ubuntu. ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp

Nice, thanks. Could you 1. click on 'Also affects' above 2. add the link https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=623421 to the 'upstream bug report' In this way, you can link Launchpad to the GNOME Bugzilla report, so automated updates can take place. Finally, you can change the Status for 'gedit' above from 'New' to 'Invalid'. -- 1.8 breaks Super (Win) key shortcuts in Gtk apps https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/577532 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xkeyboard-config in ubuntu. ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 577532] Re: 1.8 breaks Super (Win) key shortcuts in Gtk apps
The GNOME bug was not attached to the 'gtk' project. It was attached to the xkeyboard-config (because I did not explain this in my instructions). I fixed this and this report is properly linked to https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=623421 I am also fixing the title of this report here so that it is more descriptive. Feel free to update the bug description. ** Also affects: gtk via https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=623421 Importance: Unknown Status: Unknown ** Changed in: xkeyboard-config Importance: Unknown = Undecided ** Changed in: xkeyboard-config Status: Unknown = New ** Changed in: xkeyboard-config Remote watch: GNOME Bug Tracker #623421 = None ** Changed in: xkeyboard-config Status: New = Invalid ** Summary changed: - 1.8 breaks Super (Win) key shortcuts in Gtk apps + Super (Win) key shortcuts don't work in GTK+ apps -- Super (Win) key shortcuts don't work in GTK+ apps https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/577532 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xkeyboard-config in ubuntu. ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
