I think this is a duplicate of an older bug even if the upstream bugs these two launchpad bugs link to do not seem to be related. Feel free to unduplicate if I am mistaken. ** This bug has been marked a duplicate of bug 106573 can only add a single key combination to the "keyboard shortcut" applet -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-control-center in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1079198 Title: gnome-control-center keyboard shortcuts GUI does not allow multiple key bindings to be assigned to a single action Status in GNOME Control Center: New Status in “gnome-control-center” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: I wish to assign the "Close window" action in gnome-control-center -> Keyboard -> Shortcuts -> Windows to multiple buttons on my keyboard. Specifically, I would like the traditional Alt-F4 to work as well as the easier to hit single pause/break button which I otherwise don't use. When I click on "Close window" in the GUI, it allows me to choose exactly one keybinding to be assigned to this action. It should allow multiple bindings per action. This is particularly unfortunate, as multiple keybindings IS supported under the hood. If I use dconf-editor to change org.gnome.desktop.wm.keybindings close to ['Pause', '<Alt>F4'], then both keybindings take effect. The GUI is all that is limiting this functionality.
