The GNOME issue is completely separate from the problem of "triggering layout change on press", as GNOME does not use the kxb behavior at all - it actually disables any options set using setxkbmap - instead it listens to keyboard events and implements its own custom behavior that mimics Mac OS.
Note that with the current release (19.10, but also tested 20.04) on Kubuntu with xserver 1.20 that *does not* include the patch from freedesktop.org bug 865, layout switching works on release - as requested. I'm not sure what introduced this behavior and whether it is in X.org or in KDE. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to the bug report. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/36812 Title: Keyboard layout change on hotkeys press instead of release and do not work well with shortcuts To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/gnome-control-center/+bug/36812/+subscriptions _______________________________________________ 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
