Bug ID: 356773
Summary: Keyboard: Modifier keys does not work with Space
(AltGr, Shift and Shift + AltGr)
Product: plasmashell
Version: master
Platform: Archlinux Packages
OS: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: k...@davidedmundson.co.uk
Reporter: martin.lud...@outlook.com
CC: bhus...@gmail.com, plasma-b...@kde.org
I use a keyboard layout (bépo, an ergonomic layout adapted to French) that uses
modifier keys on Space key: AltGr + Space to type an underscore (Shift and
Shift + AltGr are also used for special spaces).
But since my update to Plasma5, it does not work anymore: regardless the
modifier keys, when I press the space bar, I always have a standard space.
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Switch to a keyboard layout that uses modifier keys on Space key (like bépo)
2. Try to type an underscore (AltGr + Space)
Actual Results:
The typed character is a standard space.
Expected Results:
The typed character should be an underscore.
After searching a bit, I think this problem is that plasma manages the space
bar differently. Anyway, I checked the configuration of the keyboard layout and
it should work.

key <SPCE> { [space, nobreakspace, underscore, U202F ] }; //normal,
Shift, AltGr, Shit + AlgGr

};
