Hi,
In the last few days I've been having trouble with xfwm recognizing
application shortcuts that are bound to <Primary>+shift+letter (for
example, ctrl+shift+L). This worked until very recently; I had
shortcuts bound to ctrl+shift+[hjkl] so that I could warp the mouse
cursor around with an app called xmousekeys (available at
http://beesbuzz.biz/code/xmousekeys.php) and they all worked just fine,
but recently they stopped working reliably.
Today I went into my application shortcuts preferences (under Keyboard)
and when I tried editing the shortcuts, the following happened:
1: Press Ctrl, and it displayed <Primary>
2: Pressed (left) Shift, and it displayed <Primary>Shift_L
3: Press L, and it changed to <Primary>l (note the lack of any shift
modifier)
and then the resulting shortcut on the list was just <Primary>l, which
is of course not what I wanted. So I went in and did it again; the same
sequence of events happened, but then after I finished setting the
shortcut, the entry in my shortcut list disappeared entirely. I suspect
the logic might have checked for duplicates, saw the same entry as a
"duplicate," and then removed it from the list.
I would really like to have this functionality working again, as I use
it for ergonomic reasons. In the meantime, I can try editing my xfwm
configuration file directly, but it isn't clear to me how to do that
anymore and have xfwm reload the settings without restarting entirely.
