Created attachment 129426 [details] global shortcuts settings vs keyboard settings side by side Under the "Advanced" tab in the keyboard settings you can set some shortcuts. In most KDE Applications the Meta/Super/Win -key is called "Meta", however in the keyboard settings it says "Win". Not a big deal, the inconsistency is just a bit infuriating. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. open "keyboard" in system settings 2. go to the "Advanced" tab 3. compare to other settings (e.g. global shortcuts) SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Manjaro Linux KDE Plasma Version: 5.18.5 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.70.0 Qt Version: 5.15.0
I don't think it's a bug. I don't really understand this Meta/Win/Super concept, just know it always means my Win key. But on this advanced tab if you open the "Alt and Win behavior" you can see for example "Meta is mapped to Win" option. So I think they use "Win" here not as a mistake.
The name of keyboard settings seems to be take from /usr/share/X11/xkb/rules/base.lst which is provided by xkeyboard-config.
I see, it makes sense where they pull the names from, but I still think it would be better if the GUI corrected that oddity. Replacing Win with Meta when rendering the GUI will make the interface less confusing and inconsistent.
