[Bug 54410] desktop switching issue

2006-07-29 Thread gwilson
Public bug reported:

I have the following keys bound to switching virtual desktops:

ctrl+alt+right = move one desktop to the right
ctrl+alt+left = move to the left

To reproduce the bug:
1) hold ctrl+alt
2) press left (or right)
3) release ctrl, but continue holding alt
4) press left or right -- desktop switches (unexpected)

I don't know if this is an Ubuntu problem, or gnome, or something
specific to my installation.  Also, don't consider it a big deal.  But I
DO think it makes the gui seem un-polished, and expect it can be easily
fixed.

Cheers.

sb, don't really know how to answer that... I can't imagine this is the 
intended behaviour, so I consider it a bug.

my expectation was that the desktop would switch only if
ctrl+alt+direction were pressed all at the same time, and never
otherwise.  That's the way things work in most other programs; for
example, if you hold ctl+shift+left in a text editor (with PC-like
bindings) it highlights one word to the left.  Then continue holding
shift and press left (or right) and it will highlight a char at a time.
