SUMMARY Changing keys around prevents some Kwin shortcuts from working. Note - I use Meta and Super interchangeably here. They both refer to the key left of Alt, where many keyboards have a custom logo. What I would like to achieve: 1) Swap left alt and left control and escape and caps lock 2) Use super+tab to switch windows 3) Use ctrl+alt+arrow to move to different desktops 4) Use shift+ctrl+alt+arrow to move windows to different desktops STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Open Settings > Shortcuts > Global Shortcuts > KWin 2. Set Switch One Desktop Down to Ctrl+Alt+Down, set analogous shortcuts for up, left and right 3. Set Window One Desktop Down to Ctrl+Alt+Shift+Down, set analogous shortcuts for up, left and right 4. Set Walk Through Windows to Meta+Tab 5. Set Walk Through Windows (Reverse) to Meta+Shift+Tab 6. Hit Apply Confirm that the shortcuts work as intended. If not, log out and log in. The shortcuts should now work. 7. Open Settings > Hardware > Input Devices > Keyboard > Advanced tab 8. Check Configure Keyboard Options 9. Select Caps Lock behaviour > Swap ESC and Caps Lock 10. Select Ctrl position > Swap Left Alt with Left Ctrl Confirm that Esc and Caps Lock, and Left Ctrl and Left Alt are now swapped. OBSERVED RESULT After step 10, Super+Tab no longer works. Alt+Tab (Alt now being on the Ctrl key) run the window switcher exactly ones. Trying to repeat steps 1 through to 6 doesn't work: * Pressing Meta+Tab on the Walk Through Windows shortcut selector, moves the focus to a different UI element * Trying to reset the shortcuts from steps from steps 2 and 3 has no effect. EXPECTED RESULT Pressing Esc changes the caps lock Pressing Caps Lock functions as Escape Left Alt and Left Control are swapped Meta+Tab switches windows, Meta+Shift+Tabs switches windows in reverse Control+Alt+Arrows move to different desktops Control+Alt+Shift+Arrows move windows to different desktops Operating System: openSUSE Tumbleweed 20190926 KDE Plasma Version: 5.16.5 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.62.0 Qt Version: 5.13.1 Kernel Version: 5.2.14-1-default OS Type: 64-bit Processors: 12 × Intel® Core™ i7-8750H CPU @ 2.20GHz Memory: 31.1 GiB of RAM ADDITIONAL INFORMATION I've observed the same behaviour on recent versions of Kubuntu, KDE Neon and Fedora KDE.
