Further to my original post:I changed the 'Select the previous input source' from CMD-Space to Option-1, which does work in OOo 3 Beta; it is unacceptable, however, to have to change my system-wide input change shortcut just for the sake of one software suite. I should be able to re-configure the shortcuts within OOo (assuming it's that which is causing the conflict) to something which will be innocuous to my system, right?My Spotlight shortcuts (Ctrl-Space and Ctrl-Option-Space) do work within OOo.So, assuming I've got it right in my understanding of the bug: is there some way to reconfigure the OOo shortcuts to leave alone the CMD-Space and CMD-Option-Space shortcut combos for my system use?BTW, in OOo help, in 'General Shortcut Keys in OpenOffice.org', in 'Selecting Rows and Columns in a Database Table (opened by F4)' I read that 'Ctrl+spacebar' is for 'Toggles row selection', and 'Shift +spacebar' is for 'Selects the current column'. Admittedly, it says it's for Database, not Calc, but I couldn't find any 'Spacebar' reference in the Calc section of shortcut descriptions in OOo Help. In my case, however, in Calc, Shift+spacebar selects the current / row/, not the column, Ctrl-spacebar is given to Spotlight (which I am happy about, since it's a system-wide shortcut), but Cmd-Spacebar selects the current column.So, any help?

I invariably use the CMD-Space keyboard shortcut for the flag toggle (I have relegated Spotlight to Ctrl-Space instead).Alas, it doesn't work. I can only change the input language if I click on the flag with the mouse, which is a nuisance, as it means I have to lift my fingers off the keyboard.Other system keyboard shortcuts seem to work, though. Spotlight does (Ctrl-Space). Any idea why CMD-Space doesn't?FWIW, when I'm in Calc and press CMD-Space, a row gets selected. Is there some Option in OOo to change all this?
The Input Menu bug (not being able to swap keyboard layouts using the keyboard) has already been reported as issue 89133: I've confirmed it. It had several duplicates, as people have reported it in different ways, but the issue is the same: these system-wide shortcuts don't work in OpenOffice.org 3.
