Hello, as I can see you discuss two different issues that I faced as well:
- The first is that setting up alt + shift shortcut using gnome-tweaks does not work properly anymore (it was working on Ubuntu 20.4) because it does not modify the language indicator. - The second is that if you try to set up this shortcut using Ubuntu settings (Keyboard -> Shortcuts -> Switch to the next source / Switch to the previous source), it will take only specific keys and ignores alt and shift. It seems like a bug/useless restriction in the GUI app. I found the following workaround for the second issue (execute commands as user that is logged to graphical environment): gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.wm.keybindings switch-input-source "['<Shift>Alt_L']" gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.wm.keybindings switch-input-source-backward "['<Alt>Shift_L']" This breaks the key restrictions in settings and ensures expected behavior including changing the language indicator. -- 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/1956916 Title: Using certain xkb-options, e.g. Alt+Shift, for switching input sources not reflected by the input source indicator in a wayland session Status in gnome-control-center package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Currently, there is no way to define Left Alt + Left Shift key combination to change keyboard layouts in Ubuntu 22.04. In previous versions there was a convenient "Keyboard Layout Options" window in which there was able to set required key combination. Since 22.04 release I can't find a way to do that because useless "Keyboard Shortcuts" window opens instead in which unable to set Left Alt + Left Shift as "Switch to the next source" shortcut. --- ProblemType: Bug ApportVersion: 2.20.11-0ubuntu75 Architecture: amd64 CasperMD5CheckResult: pass CurrentDesktop: ubuntu:GNOME DistroRelease: Ubuntu 22.04 InstallCmdLine: BOOT_IMAGE=/casper/vmlinuz file=/cdrom/preseed/ubuntu.seed maybe-ubiquity quiet splash --- InstallationDate: Installed on 2022-01-07 (2 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 22.04 LTS "Jammy Jellyfish" - Alpha amd64 (20211230) NonfreeKernelModules: nvidia_modeset nvidia Package: ubiquity (not installed) ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 5.13.0-19.19-generic 5.13.14 Tags: jammy wayland-session ubiquity-22.04.3 Uname: Linux 5.13.0-19-generic x86_64 UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) UserGroups: adm cdrom dip lpadmin lxd plugdev sambashare sudo _MarkForUpload: True To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-control-center/+bug/1956916/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : desktop-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
