Description Robert Czechowski 2022-06-14 09:32:41 UTC
SUMMARY
Recording a shortcut involving Shift-Tab (e.g. Ctrl+Shift+Tab for "Walk Through Windows (Reverse)") records this shortcut as "Ctrl+Shift+Tab" and this shortcut then does not work.

However, when I edit `~/.config/kglobalshortcutsrc` so the shortcut reads "Ctrl+Shift+Backtab" (_Back_tab instead of Tab), the shortcut will work.

I guess Systemsetting is expected to record this shortcut as  "Ctrl+Shift+Backtab" instead of  "Ctrl+Shift+Tab", here.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open Systemsettings -> Shortcuts -> Shortcuts -> KWin
2. Change "Walk Through Windows" to Ctrl+Tab, deactivate the Default shortcut Alt+Tab
3. Change "Walk Through Windows (Reverse)" to Ctrl+Shift+Tab, deactivate the Default shortcut Alt+Shift+Backtab
4. Log out and log in again (Changing "Walk Through Windows" does not fully work without new login)
5. Press Ctrl+Shift+Tab

OBSERVED RESULT
Nothing happens

EXPECTED RESULT
(Reverse) Window switching should occur.
