------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Mon Sep 5 08:58:55 -0700 2005 ------- Because the proposed workarounds are not very user friendly (unless they can be installed automatically and safely) I think we should try to work out of the box. The problem is that the Option-key does not work like an ordinary Alt-key but as an AltGr-key, i.e., one that produces alternative characters. It seems that there is actually no equivalent to the Alt-Key as known from other systems. So I propose to just strip off the Alt-modifier, which is erroneously sent although a different character code is produced. Because there is not a single key on my keyboard that would not produce a printable character in combination with Alt I think this is fine. This also means that for example the key combination Alt-F will never open the File menu. Can anybody check if this worked on earlier (i.e. pre-Tiger) X11 versions ? Unfortunately, this patch only works for the standard X11 VCL plugin. The gtk plugin has no chance to fix this, as it receives everything from gtk which would have to be fixed. In fact, the patch does the same as the xmodmap script, but is of course limited to OOo. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
