Title:
escape key bindings with or without modifiers do not work
Status in compiz package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Status in compizconfig-settings-manager package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
All the bugs that are related to older versions of compiz are being closed.
Since the bug still exists and it was closed due to it being old, then I need
to re-create it.
If it isn't going to be fixed for some philosophical reason, I'd like
to see it posted here and that's fine.
The bug is that no binding in compiz that includes the Escape key will
work. Evidently that is by design at some level, but Alt-Ctrl-Esc is
a handy binding to have.
Simply put, if you try to bind any function to the Escape key by itself or
with Shift/Alt/Super/Ctrl, the 'Grab' button will allow you to assign it, but
the assignment will not work and there is no error reported.
Not in the interface, nor in a logfile (that I can see yet).
