Bug ID: 422329
Summary: kglobalaccel has issue with modifiers when using
options for keyboard layout
Product: frameworks-kglobalaccel
Version: 5.70.0
Platform: openSUSE RPMs
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: kdelibs-b...@kde.org
Reporter: d...@wismill.eu
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. In Settings>Input>Keyboard, choose layout "de(deadgraveacute)" and activate
the option "altwin(swap_lalt_lwin)"
2. Exit session or reboot computer
3. Log in
OBSERVED RESULT
The global shortcuts do not work (Meta+... for example) with the new position
of the modifiers.
EXPECTED RESULT
The shorcuts should work with the new position of the modifiers.
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
OS: openSUSE Tumbleweed 20200528
KDE Plasma : 5.18.5 (using X11)
KDE Frameworks: 5.70.0
Qt: 5.14.1
Kernel: 5.6.14-1-default
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Running "killall kglobalaccel5 && (kglobalaccel5 &)" make the shortcuts work
again.
My interpretation is that kglobalaccel5 initialize its modifiers and keys to
grab with the general computer's XKB settings, not the ones of the current
Plasma session. It may be a race condition with the application of these
settings and kglobalaccel.
The solution cannot be to change the computer-wide XKB settings because we are
several persons using this computer, each with different layout options.
