Description Andrey 2022-09-14 13:25:15 UTC

SUMMARY


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Go to Keyboard KCM, Layouts tab
2. Assign whatever shortcut for any layout 

OBSERVED RESULT
The shortcut appeared on Shortcut tab, but Apply button is not accessible.
No shortcut assignments are taking place.

EXPECTED RESULT
We should be able to press Apply button to apply the shortcut assignment.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
KDE Plasma Version: 5.24.80
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.98.0
Qt Version: 5.15.3
Kernel Version: 5.15.0-46-generic (64-bit)
Graphics Platform: X11

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
I run pretty old KDE Plasma Version: 5.24.80, can't test on master at the moment.

Looks like the shortcut gets applied immediately. If I close System Settings and re-open the Keyboard KCM, the shortcuts are still set in the layouts table.

However the shortcuts seem to work unreliably. I set up layouts for US English, Greek, and Russian, and assigned each one a shortcut:
- Meta+Ctrl+Alt+U for US English
- Meta+Ctrl+Alt+G for Greek
- Meta+Ctrl+Alt+R for Russian

But only the shortcut for Greek worked.

Thanks for trying.

For me they are still set also but just do not have any effect until I change something on the page and re-apply.

Maybe worth trying to re-apply as above?

Yeah, I can confirm that.

Ok, nice, thank you.
My bet this was lost during porting to KConfig XT or something.
CCing people who might have an idea what's going on.
