Description Marius Kjeldahl 2003-01-23 13:53:28 UTC
Version:           3.1.0 (using KDE KDE 3.0.99)
Installed from:    Gentoo Packages
Compiler:          gcc 3.2.1 
OS:          Linux

I use ctrl-alt-k for switching between two different keyboard layout (US and NO in my case). This works excellent in most applications, except whenever a pulldown listbox is active.

For instance, when using konqueror and entering adresses in the location bar, the pulldown listbox will activate, and then I need to get rid of it before KDE will respond to my ctrl-alt-k. I just checked, and it is the same for other KDE keys, like alt-F2 (execute application).

This _may_ be a feature, but it is certainly an annoying one for users like me who quite often need to change keyboard layouts in the middle of typing something into the location bar in konqueror.
