this workaround worked for ubuntu 14.10: - in Settings->Text entry remove all input sources, leave only english - install gxkb (layout switcher): sudo apt-get install gxkb - add gxkb to startup applications via gnome-tweak-tool - setup gxkb hotkeys in ~/.config/gxkb (default is alt_shift, but in 14.10 it doesn't work. ctrl_shift works ok)
p.s. new version of gxkb has appindicator for ubuntu. can be installed via ppa:zen-root/gxkb-stable -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-settings-daemon in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1244090 Title: Pressing any global keyboard shortcut causes temporary loss of focus To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/gnome-settings-daemon/+bug/1244090/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
