When I was using 13.04, I had CapsLock for layout change. In 13.10 I changed it to ctrl+space, since CapsLock was not available. Now I have ctrl+space for switching between [English, Russian, Ukrainian] AND CapsLock for switching between [Currently active in indicator, English]. So if I choose Russian in indicator, I can press CapsLock to switch English/Russian (but the change is not reflected in indicator). If I choose English, nothing happens when I press CapsLock (or maybe it switches to "another" English)
This is even more confusing after locking (ctrl+alt+L) session. Consider the use-case: 1. I choose Russian in indicator (either with mouse or pressing ctrl+space) 2. I press CapsLock, so I’m now using English while indicator still shows Russian 3. I press ctrl+alt+L, to lock session, so now I see a password field (with asterisks, of course), and another language indicator (to the right from the password field) 4. Now I cannot switch using ctrl+space. I can switch using CapsLock but only between Russian (since it was active in indicator before) and English, and I have no idea about what my current layout really is :) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1215826 Title: Lost ability to remap Caps Lock to Ctrl To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/indicator-keyboard/+bug/1215826/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
