Description Paul Pogonyshev 2007-11-28 11:48:12 UTC
Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.5.6)
Installed from:    Fedora RPMs
OS:                Linux

Keyboard layout switch shortcut (Ctrl+K, here Win+Space, but that is true regardless of shortcut) doesn't work when any popup window is active.  For instance, when Firefox pops combo box input history (in a form) or location history.  In effect, I have to do Esc (to hide the popup) and then switch layout, which is quite annoying.

Switching layouts works fine when a normal window (with decorations, etc.) is active.  I guess it doesn't work in all popups, e.g. combo box dropdown, window or Alt+F1 menu, etc.
