Hi, Actually, the patch works for key shortcuts with two or more buttons (like ALT+SHIFT, but not Alt or Ctrl alone). It is not done intentionally. Despite the fact that there is a possibility to improve current patch behaviour for needs like yours I don't think it should be improved for all possible cases - there are many other things to be done to make the world a better place. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to xorg-server in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/36812 Title: Keyboard layout change on hotkeys press instead of release and do not work well with shortcuts Status in GNOME Control Center: Unknown Status in X.Org X server: In Progress Status in “control-center” package in Ubuntu: Invalid Status in “xorg-server” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Bug description: This is a bug about shortcuts mapped to combinations which include each other.
