Users of French, German, and latin languages do not want it. Currently the first behaviour is implemented as a gtk+ hack - http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=162726 . The second set of users suffers. This behaviour should be implemented in xkb in a configurable way, so that it can be removed from gtk+ and both sets of users can be happy.

Udaltsov wrote: xkeyboard-config has nothing to do with it. neither xorg. The apps/toolkits get notifications about both keycodes and keysyms (and modifiers and groups etc). The rest is up to them. If some key produces letter S with group 1, and some other key produces letter S with group 2 - xkb can do nothing with the app looking for the symbol S but not for the keycodes. AFAIK gtk does not do any bad hacks - it correctly(!) just looks through all the symbols in all groups of the pressed key. PS Though, being Russian, I personally really like the way gtk behaves - and sincerely cannot understand users having several latin layouts in one configuration Reply at: https://bugs.launchpad.net/gtk/+bug/23244/comments/18 ** Changed in: xkeyboard-config Status: Invalid => Won't Fix ** Changed in: xkeyboard-config Importance: Unknown => Medium -- keyboard shortcut mixed when using several keymaps https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/23244 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Registry Administrators, which is a subscriber of a duplicate bug (47399). _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~registry Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~registry More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
