I don't think this bug is valid. If somekey+<delay>+Ctrl works the same as Ctrl+somekey in Xorg then that's interesting, but not normal recommended behavior. Your should always be holding the modifier (Ctrl) first.
So this bug is being marked as "Opinion". If you disagree then please report the bug to the Gnome developers here: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/issues/new and if they accept it then we can reopen. ** Tags added: bionic ** Changed in: gnome-shell (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Opinion ** Changed in: gnome-terminal (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Opinion -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-terminal in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1720213 Title: Word moving with left-arrow-ctrl broken in wayland Status in gnome-shell package in Ubuntu: Opinion Status in gnome-terminal package in Ubuntu: Opinion Bug description: Ubuntu 17.10, Wayland session. In the terminal, the keycombination `ctrl-left-arrow` and `ctrl-right- arrow` moves the cursor one word to the left and to the right. In Xorg this works, no matter which key you press first (ctrl or arrow). In wayland, you have to press the ctrl key first, otherwise, the cursor will not move. # How to reproduce: type some words in gnome terminal press `left-arrow` key, wait for the cursor to move and, and press `ctrl`. # What happens The cursor first moves one character per "tick", and stops immediately when you press `ctrl`. # What should happen The cursor first moves one character per "tick", and starts moving one word per "tick" when you press `ctrl`.
