Bug ID: 488824
Summary: Meta Key Won't Open Application Menu
Classification: Plasma
Product: plasmashell
Version: 6.1.0
Platform: Arch Linux
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: plasma-b...@kde.org
Reporter: m...@nuth.ch
CC: k...@davidedmundson.co.uk
Target Milestone: 1.0
Created attachment 170704
--> https://bugs.kde.org/attachment.cgi?id=170704&action=edit
Both default, broken version and fixed version of the `kglobalshortcutsrc`
file.
SUMMARY
In the most recent version of plasma released on Arch Linux (6.1.0-1), the
Application Menu won't open when pressing an individual Meta key.
My keyboard has two Meta keys - one on the left and one on the right. When
pressing both at once, the Application Menu opens properly.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Connect a keyboard with two Meta keys.
2. Reset Global Shortcuts in Plasma's System Settings app
3. Take note that the Application Menu will only open if you press both Meta
keys at once
OBSERVED RESULT
The Application Menu only opens if you press both Meta keys at the same time.
EXPECTED RESULT
The Application Menu should open when one Meta key is pressed individually.
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux/KDE Plasma: 6.9.5-arch1-1 (64-bit)
KDE Plasma Version: 6.1.0
KDE Frameworks Version: 6.3.0
Qt Version: 6.7.1
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
When removing `Meta` from `plasmashell`'s global shortcut list, the Meta key
opens the Application Menu properly again. There is a `kglobalshortcutsrc` file
with the current defaults and a `kglobalshortcutsrc` file with the
aforementioned fix applied in the `.tar.gz` file in the attachments.
