Bug ID: 370146
Summary: Window rule to block global shortcuts doesn't block
meta
Product: kwin
Version: 5.8.0
Platform: Gentoo Packages
OS: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: minor
Priority: NOR
Component: rules
Assignee: kwin-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: aiwend...@googlemail.com
Setting a window rule for a programs to block all global shortcuts blocks
combined <meta> shortcuts like an application start shortcuts <windows>+<b> for
a browser (self created shortcut)..but doesn't block <windows> alone to open
the menu (using appdash as menu).
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. start a program
2. Enter the windows rules (<alt><f3> -> More actions->Special settings for
this window)
3. 4th Tab (Appearance and corrections) (Sorry, german KDE...english terms
might not be completely correct) -> Enable "Ignore Global shorctus" and set to
"Force"
4. Shortcut combinations with <meta> are blocked...meta itself for menu is not
blocked and opens the menu.
Actual Results:
The start-menu opens
Expected Results:
<meta> shortcut being blocked along with all other global shortcuts.
Overall not really important I guess...but surprising. Maybe it's even meant to
work this way. Just feels wrong for me with an option "Block global
shortcuts"...the menu seems to be a global shortcut for me.
