Bug ID: 491982
Summary: Caps Lock (while pressed) shortcut to change keyboard
layout does not work in flatpak apps
Classification: Plasma
Product: plasmashell
Version: 6.1.4
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: Keyboard Layout
Assignee: plasma-b...@kde.org
Reporter: g.gue...@posteo.net
CC: butir...@gmail.com
Target Milestone: 1.0
SUMMARY
I have two keyboard layouts (us and fr). The default is us and I use Caps Lock
(while pressed) as the main shortcut to switch to fr. I also have the system
tray icon which show the layout switching and which I can use to change the
layout to fr as default (i.e. to write with the fr without having to press Caps
Lock).
On flatpak apps (I can't try snap as I don't use it), when I try to use the fr
layout using the Caps Lock shortcut, it doesn't work (even though I can see the
switch in the system tray icon and it works outside of the flatpack app).
If I use the system tray icon to select the fr layout, then it works fine.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Setup two kayboard layout
2. Assign the Caps Lock (while pressed) as the default shortcut to switch
layout
3. Open a flatpak app and start typing pressing Caps Lock
OBSERVED RESULT
The layout doesn't change and it using the default layout
EXPECTED RESULT
The layout should change to the second layout like it does in non flatpak apps
