[Bug 1051966] Re: gmusicbrowser ignores keyboard shortcuts
Can you give a specific example of a command that you tried, and which key combination you assigned it to ? One likely explanation is that you have chosen a key combination that is used by the widget that has focus. Currently the focused widget is given priority which means if the widget use this shortcut, the command you have chosen won't be executed. For example if you have chosen a simple letter as shortcut, and a list widget has the focus, the list will use the letter to begin a search. Another example with list widgets is ctrl-g, ctrl-f and others I forgot. To fix this problem I currently hesitate between : 1) adding a check box for each shortcut to chose if the shortcut should have priority over the focused widget's shortcut 2) making ctrl/alt/super shortcuts have priority over the focused widget's shortcut -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1051966 Title: gmusicbrowser ignores keyboard shortcuts To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gmusicbrowser/+bug/1051966/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Hello Quentin, thanks for writing such a cool music player (I'm using it as I type this!) Anyhow, I had set ctrl-right (that is, the control key and the right arrow key) to jump to the next song, space (and later ctrl-space) to play/pause the current track and ctrl-j to jump to the currently playing song. The focus was in the song list itself, though I just now tried using any of these commands after highlighting a couple of different widgets like the pause and next buttons (I'm using the Shimmer Desktop layout that comes with Xubuntu). I'd lean towards ctrl/alt/super having priority, maybe make an alert when there is an app-wide shortcut already set that a widget in a layout wants to use and offer to change either the global shortcut, or simply disable the widget's shortcut (though you might have to explain what the loss in function would be). Thanks for getting back to me, Andrew -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1051966 Title: gmusicbrowser ignores keyboard shortcuts To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gmusicbrowser/+bug/1051966/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
