Please decide which is your bugzilla account - I will close the others. I won't accept you faking votes. No, no, Stephan. I am sorry, I thought this is legal. Don't close the other account since I have other bugs filed only with it and I promise not to vote with two accounts again. Another important issue is that I am the maintainer of http://wiki.arabeyes.org/OpenBugs on which I have gathered most of the bugs the Arabic community facing. I ask people to see if the bugs are applicable to them to vote. Is this legal? Sorry again. OK, I accept that. The main problem here is that KDE does not accept modifier keys as shortcuts. Ctrl+Shift is modifier here. And Alt+Shift is your case is probably defined as group changer - then it becomes real key. But that means that with Alt+Shiftut you change the group inside the layout but not the layout itself - so shortcut for kxkb is not working. If your layout includes us group this is legal but is handled by X - not kxkb so the flag will not change. As to the problem with assigning Alt+Shift (and other modifier keys) - it's an X specific and also lack of integration between X and KDE. As it's not kxkb problem - I'll mark it as duplicate of 84606 to be able to follow the general problem. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 84606 *** > Alt+Shift is your case is probably defined as > group changer - then it becomes real key Where are such valuable information documented? > Alt+Shiftut you change the group inside the layout but not the layout itself But my 'ar' layout contains one group with two levels xkb_symbols "basic" { name[Group1]= "Arabic"; key <AD01> { [ Arabic_dad, Arabic_fatha ] }; Also, can I vote for the other bug or does my voting transfer automatically? I don't want to annoy Stephan Kulow again ;) |
