--- Comment #6 from Martin Gräßlin <mgraess...@kde.org> --- So these are two very different issues: * global shortcuts * meta shortct The global shortcuts can only trigger if no other window has grabbed the keyboard. If they trigger on the host, the client has failed to grab the keyboard. This is a problem with the application. If a global shortcut is intercepted, the application does not get the key event. This is expected behavior. Concerning meta: the modifier only shortcuts are triggered independently from the grab state of applications. That is whenever meta is pressed - without any other key, it will fire on the host system. I'm not sure whether it would be a good idea to change that. It's a well defined state of the system now that pressing meta will open the launcher - no matter which application is open or what it does. I see both advantages and disadvantages there. There are multiple such keys already which cannot be send to the guest system. E.g. ctrl+alt+F1 cannot be send. Normally VMs provide solutions for that. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
