Title: Layout switching shortcut cannot be set through System Settings -> Keyboard Status in “unity-control-center” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Yet another layout-switching-related bug... [The bug] The shortcut for layout switching cannont be changed through System Settings -> Keyboard -> Shortcuts -> Typing -> Switch to next source. Actually, some of the combinations can be set, like Ctrl+Space or Super+Space. And some combinations cannot. When you press, for example, Alt+Shift or Ctrl+Shift, the combination is not set and the status of the shortcut is displayed as "Disabled". And it is actually disabled, that is the layout switching shortcut doesn't work. At the same time, it is quite possible to set these combinations through System Settings -> Text Entry -> Switch to next source using. [How to reproduce] 1. Go to System Settings -> Keyboard -> Shortcuts. 2. Choose Typing item from the list. 3. Click on "Switch to next source" item in the list on the right. 4. You will see the invitation "New accelerator..." to type the shortcut. 5. Press Alt+Shift or Ctrl+Shift. [What is expected] The corresponding (Alt+Shift or Ctrl+Shift) combination should appear as a new shortcut. [What happens] "Disabled" status appears instead. The layout switching shortcut stops working. [Current workaround] Set the combination through System Settings -> Text Entry.
