RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Comment 2 Vimal Patel 2012-12-04 16:10:44 UTC 
Same issue with Normal Size (Ctrl + 0) works with the qwerty keyboard, it doesnt work when using the Number Pad (Ctrl + 0)
Comment 3 David Jaša 2012-12-04 17:28:59 UTC 
Confirmed. Alphanumeric keyboard works like charm even when there has to be shift pressed ("ctrl shift =" on en_US layout to get ctrl + on en_us layout, "ctrl shift é" on cs_CZ to get ctrl 0) but when using numeric keys, nothing happens.

please reporter, either open as duplicate or add correct bug dependencies...

This bug was reported for mingw-virt-viewer too #921218, and here is the comment I left:

I opened an upstream bug to Gtk+. If it's acceptable, the solution should be pretty trivial.

Comment 8 Fabiano Fidêncio 2014-09-12 14:45:46 UTC 
Ah, this bug also requires the following patch (https://www.redhat.com/archives/virt-tools-list/2014-September/msg00053.html) to fix a regression introduced with the previous fix.

"previous fix" is commit v1.0-23-g3a16881
Comment 10 Fabiano Fidêncio 2014-09-25 13:57:43 UTC 
Copying from:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=921326#c7

"Okay, the current situation is:
- Only one accelerator can be used per widget, unless we start using GApplication for the {remote,virt}-viewer, what is something I wouldn't like to do/have as long as we are still maintaining GTK2 support.
- A way to workaround this is having 2 widgets, with different accelerators (aka, one accelerator per widget) and then we have the menu items being duplicated, what I don't think is acceptable."

So, I'm closing the bug as WONTFIX here.
