> Pointer Location is fired up once Ctrl is pressed.
No, pointer location is fired once Ctrl is released AND no other
shortcut was pressed. I've just confirmed it works correctly on Ubuntu
20.04.
If you are sure you are holding down the Ctrl key for long enough and
there is really a bug then please run:

Title:
Pointer Location (which uses Ctrl key) conflicts with other Ctrl-based
shortcuts
Status in gnome-shell package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
When activating Pointer Location function, I cannot use any other
Ctrl-based shortcuts. Ctrl+C, Ctrl+V, Ctrl+X, etc. just stop working
because Pointer Location is fired up once Ctrl is pressed.
I think that shortcuts should work as follows: shortcut bound commands
should be activated after keys are released.
(BTW, don't know whether it's OK to write here but I've never had such
issues with Windows OS, because no shortcuts interrupt one another
there and it's very important nowadays because shortcuts help saving
one's valuable time).
OS Name: Ubuntu 20.04.3 LTS
OS Type: 64-bit
