Description hasezoey 2022-01-28 07:12:15 UTC
SUMMARY
Since upgrading to 5.24.5 from 5.24.4, the Application Launcher (Start Menu) stopped accepting a single "Meta" keypress as a shortcut


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1.  upgrade to 5.23.5 from 5.23.4
2.  try to press default keybind "Meta" for the application launcher
3.  enter application launcher configuration
4. open tab "Keyboard Shortcuts", see that assigned keybind is "None"
5. try to assign a single "Meta"

OBSERVED RESULT
a single "Meta" is not accepted

EXPECTED RESULT
a single "Meta" to be accepted

as a update: i figured out setting it to "META+F1" works with just META, so it seems like it just reset over the upgrade

> i figured out setting it to "META+F1" works with just META

that part is somewhat expected

> so it seems like it just reset over the upgrade

that part is not.

Can you please attach the contents of .config/kglobalshortcutsrc and .config/plasma-org.kde.plasma.desktop-appletsrc ?

from before the upgrade and / or after the upgrade?
Comment 4 Nicolas Fella 2022-01-28 13:40:27 UTC

Config files before upgrade, after upgrade and after revert resetting

Config files from 3 stages:
- before upgrade
- after upgrade
- after reverting back (only root, not home) and re-setting the shortcuts to what they should be
