Description 7dab773c0c 2021-03-24 04:10:56 UTC

hello when I try to custom my shortcut through the GUI,
inputing
alt + fn + print screen
is recognized either as
only alt,
or only print

Strangely, inputing for the field "active window"
shift + fn + print screen
is recognized... (and does conflict with "entire desktop", as intended)

(I'm using Kubuntu20.04 native spectacle app)

(PS : whereas it works flawlessly without having to configure anything in RHEL8.2 gnome default desktop)
It may be a reason for some people to rather go for gnome instead of KDE


SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
kernel 5.4.0-67-generic
KDE Plasma Version: 5.18.5
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.68.0
Qt Version: 5.12.8

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
keyboard logitech k230 (ref y-r0022)

Maybe a quick fix would be to manually type the name of the buttons I wanna use, instead of relying on the software to recognize them ? Is it feasible through the config file?
