Yeah, I was just being lazy about playback menu. Sorry. If GTK does not allow the global shortcut, a workable workaround would then seemingly be to bind space bar press to play/pause in all or most controls that do not accept keyboard input. Of course, you would probably need a good abstraction/OO design pattern for this that would allow not having the binding code all over the place.
At first glance, it seems it would help a lot if space bar would work in any of the list views in the tabs on the left, and when any of the tab titles are active. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/726978 Title: Space bar key should always trigger play/pause, like in all other media players -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
