Actual Results:  
No action occurs
Multiple tries eventually hangs Customize window and entire settings menu

Previous behavior created a shortcut key for defined command

Using a Logitech G610 Ketboard
Setting keyboard shortcuts functioned correctly in F37.

On further testing I found setting the Shortcut as "Alt + T" or "Ctl + T" works correctly.
I still think "SuperKey" should be supported to avoid potential conflicts with other uses of "Ctl" and "Alt".

Comment 2 John 2023-06-22 12:54:26 UTC

Just to be clear, the "Super" key is not functioning.
None of the "default" definitions using the "Super" key are working either.

Cancel this bug.
User error. Keyboard has a "game mode" button which disables the "Super" key.
Game mode had been selected at some point and that caused the problem.
