Bug ID: 375518
Summary: global shortcuts don't work as expected with foreign
keyboard layouts
Product: kwin
Version: git master
Platform: Compiled Sources
OS: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: wayland-generic
Assignee: kwin-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: akreuzk...@web.de
Target Milestone: ---
I'm using a EU (US + special keys) keyboard layout, but occasionally I switch
to a greek layout to enter greek symbols. On X11 I used to use CTRL+ALT+K to
switch to greek and CTRL+ALT+K again to switch back.
On Wayland, I can use CTRL+ALT+K to switch to greek, but I can't switch back.
Probably this is, because I now effectively enter CTRL+ALT+Kappa.
I'm not 100% sure, how global shortcuts are supposed to work with foreign
keyboard layouts, but especially in regards of the "switch keyboard layout"
shortcut this is odd.
Maybe CTRL+ALT+Kappa is simply missing as a trigger for the shortcut or KWin's
handling should be different here.
