Bug ID: 426684
Summary: Swapping Alt with Win not working when invoking plasma
keyboard shortcuts (5.20 beta)
Product: kxkb
Version: unspecified
Platform: Archlinux Packages
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: major
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: unassigned-b...@kde.org
Reporter: openmail+...@siezi.com
Target Milestone: ---
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Activate System Settings -> Keyboard -> Advanced -> Alt and Win behavior ->
Alt is swapped with Win
2. Logout and login again
3. Invoke a keyboard shortcut e.g. Meta+E to start Dolphin using physical Alt+E
OBSERVED RESULT
Nothing happens. Dolphin isn't started. The shortcut still requires the
physical Meta+E button to be pressed while the system has mapped that button to
Alt+E.
EXPECTED RESULT
Dolphin should start.
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Operating System: EndeavourOS
KDE Plasma Version: 5.19.90 (i.e. Arch kde-unstable Plasma 5.20 beta)
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.74.0
Qt Version: 5.15.1
Kernel Version: 5.8.9-zen2-1-zen
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
>From what I can tell the remapping of Alt and Win is done and recognized
throughout the system, except for *invoking* plasma keyboard shortcuts. I'll
attach a video, where you can observe the physical buttons. In that xen says
the buttons are remapped, the "System Settings"-app recognizes the correct,
remapped button for registering a shortcut, but to activate you have to use the
"wrong" button.
This was working in plasma 5.19 but seems to be a regression in the 5.20 beta.
