*** Bug 336975 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** This issue is actually made up of two distinct problems: - runtime assignment does not work - configuration is reset on each khotkeys startup (wiping all changes) I tried looking at the code to see why, but it's so complex, at least for my C++ experience, that I understoond nothing of it. Probably related to: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=337902 https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=337598 https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=339446 https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=340096 https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=340103 Git commit e1faf20d79d63f45afd5fcdafdecc4cb59aaaf2e by David Edmundson. Committed on 24/10/2014 at 10:44. Pushed by davidedmundson into branch 'Plasma/5.1'. When loading the configuration set active shortcut not the default shortcut Otherwise hotkeys don't work FIXED-IN: 5.1.1 M +1 -1 libkhotkeysprivate/shortcuts_handler.cpp http://commits.kde.org/khotkeys/e1faf20d79d63f45afd5fcdafdecc4cb59aaaf2e *** Bug 339446 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** *** Bug 337902 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** *** Bug 340118 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** Oh, nice fix. *** Bug 340293 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** *** Bug 337598 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** *** Bug 340103 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** Maybe related/returned? This issue -- or a piece of it -- now exists for KDE 5.3.90-git I'm running plasma5+kf5* etc from git-latest, using Opensuse pkgs. currently with plasma5-desktop-5.3.91git~20150713T211720~61fe1bc-108.1.x86_64 khotkeys5-5.3.91git~20150604T013319~78dd188-4.3.x86_64 kglobalaccel5-5.13.0git.20150710T145714~05ae172-1.1.x86_64 I can easily create "Send Keyboard Input" custom shortcut that'll type text into an active window -- for non-symbol keys, specifically [aA-zZ][0-9] However, special characters [ !@#$%^&*() ] are no longer output. For example, an exclamation-point. With earlier versions of KDE5, on a machine that has libKF5GlobalAccel5-5.12.0-60.1.x86_64 an action of "Shift+1", when triggered, properly types the exclamation point. Same is true for the rest of the set. Switching to the currently-installed versions, however, the same defined action, on trigger, outputs nothing. It just fails silently. I installed khotkeys5-5.4.90git~20150822T211938~c0484e4-1.1.x86_64 kglobalaccel5-5.15.0git.20151005T231957~bf71e53-2.1.x86_64 from my distro's packages (Opensuse). It looks like 2 things aren't working. (1) Triggers that use "Ctrl" (2) Actions that have "Shift-ed" keys It looks like problem is contained in khotkeys, since global accels in general work (https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=341959#c42) At KDE's "System Settings" > "Shortcuts" > "Custom Shortcuts" > "Configure Input Actions settings" first, anytime you use the 'Ctrl' key there's no output Action = t:e:s:t Trigger Output ============ =========== Ctrl+T (none) Alt+T test Meta+T test Ctrl+Alt+T (none) Meta+Ctrl+T (none) Meta+Alt+T test Meta+Ctrl+Alt+T (none) Second, "Shifted" keys (for example 'Shift+2' == "@") don't work Action = t:e:s:t:Shift+2 Trigger Output ============ =========== Ctrl+T (none) Alt+T test Meta+T test Ctrl+Alt+T (none) Meta+Ctrl+T (none) Meta+Alt+T test Meta+Ctrl+Alt+T (none) If you test the "kcmshell5 keys", it works. If in "Global Keyboard Shortcuts" I select KDE component = krunner and change "Run command" from Global = Default: Alt+Space (which works) to Global = Custom: Meta+Ctrl+Alt+T it works OK using "Meta+Ctrl+Alt+T", and launches 'krunner'. Looking for khotkeys bugs https://bugs.kde.org/buglist.cgi?product=khotkeys&component=general&resolution=---&list_id=1301814 There's a long list that suggests the khotkeys component is a) severely broken b) virtually unmaintained I sure don't know why it's different than the kglobalaccel stuff. To me they seem pretty much linked together from a user perspective. It's for sure working on older KDE4 setups, though. So it's not a new thing. It was working then broken. Does that make it a "regression"? It doesn't look like anyone decided to stop having it in KDE since it's obviously still "in there". I know I use it a lot. From that list it looks like others do too. I don't know how to add a "See also" flag, so, see also: Bug 341959 - kwin shortcuts don't work when using meta + shift + <number> Bug 345495 - Switch to Previous Desktop shortcut moves to Next, instead Bug 253842 - Problems with Shift+... hotkeys and KeyPad hotkeys moved to a NEW bug: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=353781 |
