With german "default" tastatur model, I'm unable to use "`" (in between ? and BACKSPACE on my keyboard). When i Press it, some other window will popup and if i press it again, this one windows will minimized and un-minimized. Via kwin debug console i can see that this key sends 2 things. xkb-symbol 0 xkb-symbol 180 The same thing happens with "^" It also sends out xkb-symbol 0 and minimizes/ unminimizes a window
This sounds like a modifier is activated. Can you check in the debug console what's the state of the modifiers?
Thanks for the reply, sadly no modifiers are active
Do you have a global shortcut configured for minimize window?
No. I also tried with a fresh user and also on KDE neon. It's always the exact same.
I have the same issue with french keyboard on Archlinux (plasma release 5.12.2). The key "^" seems to minimize/un-minimize the active window. This is possible to print the character after pressing the key several times (8 times). This bug doesn't append on Plasma X11 or on another DE using wayland. Note : Since today, this key call the screenshot software "spectacle".
This issue report is quite old. Can you please confirm, that it still persists with KDE 5.23?
