@Sebastien: I can only share my opinion here, but maybe it's not uncommon. I've been regularly (=sometimes multiple times per minute) using Alt+Shift as the switcher for more than a decade, I'm so used to it that I'm not even willing to try to change this habit. Any attempt in getting used to a new one would cause a huge loss of productivity, and big frustration. Call me old-fashioned, I spent quite some time getting used to Dvorak, and later to Colemak, but gave up all. I'm already used to something and I don't see why I would need to change. Forcing any change would be like forcing me to swap Y-Z after ~15 years of touch typing. I'd scream and uninstall Ubuntu for good.
So: please let everyone continue to use their favorite shortcut keys, whatever they've been using previously! Otherwise it's a giant usability regression. Also, the press order of modifiers, and the release order of any keys (modifiers and normal keys) should not matter. Alt+Shift should mean press Alt and Shift together in any order, then release them in any order. Maaaaybeee forcing a particular press order is acceptable if it absolutely necessary (that's what happens with modifier+letter combos anyway), but depending on the release order is not. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-control-center in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1218322 Title: Can't set keyboard layout change to alt+shift, ctrl+shift, etc. To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/indicator-keyboard/+bug/1218322/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
