Bug ID: 402764
Summary: Caps Lock as additional Super does not trigger Alt+F1
shortcut
Product: kwin
Version: 5.12.7
Platform: Kubuntu Packages
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: minor
Priority: NOR
Component: input
Assignee: kwin-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: d...@ltondur.st
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
When "Make Caps Lock an additional Super" is enabled in Keyboard > Advanced >
Caps Lock behavior, pressing Caps Lock once (to create a Super keypress) does
not trigger the ALT+F1 shortcut to (by default) open the application launcher.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Enable "Make Caps Lock an additional Super" in Keyboard > Advanced > Caps
Lock behavior and apply the changes
2. Verify that tapping the real Super key on the keyboard raises the
Application Launcher.
3. Tap the Caps Lock key to send a Super keypress
OBSERVED RESULT
The Application Launcher does not appear. However, shortcuts which use Super as
a modifier key (such as Meta+T) work correctly.
EXPECTED RESULT
The Application Launcher appears
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux/KDE Plasma: Kubuntu 18.04
(available in About System)
KDE Plasma Version: 5.12.7
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.44.0
Qt Version: 5.9.5
I can work around this issue by setting the application launcher to a different
multi-key shortcut, such as Meta+Space.
