Description Matthias Clasen 2009-02-19 06:42:57 UTC
Keyboard shortcuts: I would love to see these moved to the keyboard
shortcuts capplet, which has support for handling application-defined
shortcuts. As a bonus, you get automatic conflict handling. The one
restriction is that currently, only one key-combination per action is
possible. If having multiple is essential, you could either split it
into "Trigger", "Alternative Trigger", "Second Alternative Trigger", or
file a bug and I'll look into enabling multiple shortcuts per action in
the keybinding capplet

Would it be possible for ibus to read a key from there as a user custom config - though it gets a complicated.  ibus/scim have a lot of different hotkeys for different parts: I think it is going to be a challenge to map them all to gnome-keybindings-properties, and having a few there and the rest in ibus-setup may be more confusing for users?

Comment 2 Peng Huang 2009-06-11 02:17:54 UTC
I think keyboard shortcuts capplet depends on window manager (metacity). If you run other window manager, the keyboard shortcuts maybe do not work. So I will close this bug as wontfix.

Comment 3 Matthias Clasen 2009-06-11 02:26:50 UTC
You are thinking wrong. Keyboard shortcuts do not depend on the window manager (except for the window management shortcuts, of course.

Hi Matthias,

Which running process is responsible for those Keyboard shortcuts? I need do more investigation on it.

BTW, I just tried several shortcuts (lock screen, eject cdrom and Custom shortcuts added by self). If I kill the metacity process in gnome desktop session, those shortcuts will not work.

Matthias, can you shed any more like or pointers on this? :)

Comment 6 Jens Petersen 2009-07-14 23:51:02 UTC
<phuang> I have reviewed related packages for this bug, it depends on gconf
<phuang> You just need provide some xml files in specified dir.

Comment 7 Jens Petersen 2009-07-14 23:56:26 UTC
<phuang> and the capplet will have those configure items, when users change those items, ibus need read configure from gconf

Sure. It is not true. metacity does not handle any of those shortcuts, and thus killing metacity cannot affect them...

This is fixed in f18 gnome-shell.
