Is this ever going to be closed? I reported a duplicate bug like this 7 years ago, and the original bug report was 9 years ago....

Normally,we should have a consistent behaviour in regards with the workspace-selector applet, ie : - first ^-Alt-arrow (for the workspace-selector : click), the menu is unfolded - second ^-Alt-arrow , we go to the next desktop === see bug 29894 for not being able to take screenshots when menu is open, another symptom of this bug. ---------------------------------- Note from Design: This is a critical bug, a user should be able to use a global keyboard shortcut at any moment, including when a menu is open. In the unlikely case that there is a conflict between the global keyboard shortcuts ( see https://launchpadlibrarian.net/85352653/Super_key_shutcuts_overlay.png ) and the menu keyboard shortcuts, the menu keyboard shortcuts should take precedence.
