Bug ID: 423175
Summary: krunner not invoked by global shortcut (changed from
default)
Product: frameworks-kglobalaccel
Version: 5.70.0
Platform: Fedora RPMs
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: kdelibs-b...@kde.org
Reporter: m...@acm.org
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
After changing the global shortcut designed to invoke krunner from
Alt-Space/Alt-F2 to Meta-F2, I can't invoke krunner by pressing Meta-F2. With
the input focus set to the desktop root window, I can still invoke krunner by
typing printable characters like "xterm" or "emacs".
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Use the System Settings app to modify the global shortcut defaults for
invoking krunner from Alt-Space and Alt-F2 to just Meta-F2.
2. Type Meta-F2
OBSERVED RESULT
Krunner does not drop down. It is not started automatically if it isn't
already running.
EXPECTED RESULT
The krunner one line input window should drop down from the top of the screen.
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux/KDE Plasma: Fedora 32 Workstation Edition
KDE Plasma Version: 5.18.5
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.70.0
Qt Version: 5.14.2
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
This behavior was persistently observed after using xmodmap to change my
physical Alt_L key to emit the Meta_L keysym event. The physical Alt_R key was
unchanged and still emits Alt_R.
