Bug ID: 371821
Summary: Meta key behavior not consistent, especially in
VirtualBox VMs
Product: plasmashell
Version: 5.8.2
Platform: Neon Packages
OS: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: minor
Priority: NOR
Component: Application Launcher (Kickoff)
Assignee: k...@davidedmundson.co.uk
Reporter: am...@xram.net
CC: plasma-b...@kde.org
Target Milestone: 1.0
Switched from KUbuntu 16.10 with 5.7.5 to KDE Neon 5.8.2, and I love the fact
the meta key now brings up the app launcher without needing a workaround (in
addition to a bunch of other fixes -- awesome work!)
However, its behavior is inconsistent. Pressing Alt+F1 will show/hide the
launcher. Pressing Meta will show, but subsequent presses will not hide the
launcher (have to press Esc or mouse focus elsewhere to hide the launcher).
Also, in VirtualBox VMs, Meta+{key} sequences are properly captured and do not
trigger host shortcuts. But a single press of the meta key causes the app
launcher to show, even when the keyboard is captured by the VM.
