Public bug reported: Some users prefer to use an alternative Latin layout such as Dvorak to increase their typing speed. Many of these users prefer to use the original Qwerty keyboard shortcuts which are conveniently positioned (e.g. Ctrl: C-Copy, V-Paste, S-Save). An option should be provided to use Qwerty hotkeys with alternative layouts.
Qwerty hotkeys are already used in the terminal and in non-latin keyboard layouts. Qwerty hotkeys were used in all keyboard layouts in the past. ** Affects: gtk Importance: Unknown Status: Unknown ** Affects: gtk+2.0 (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: regression-release ** Bug watch added: GNOME Bug Tracker #652104 https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=652104 ** Also affects: gtk via https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=652104 Importance: Unknown Status: Unknown ** Description changed: - Some users prefer to use an alternative Latin layout such as Dvorak to increase - their typing speed.
