Public bug reported: Binary package hint: ubuntu-desktop
Shift-F10 keyboard shortcut should, IMHO, emulate mouse right click (which usually brings up a context menu in whatever application that has focus). But when compiz-fusion is enabled, compiz-fusion *overrides* Shift-F10 to mean Slow Animations (at least when System->Preferences->Appearance is set to Extra). This is disturbing. Using Shift-F10 to emulate mouse right-click an old MS Windows heritage I think, just like Alt-F4 (for closing a window), that people coming from the MS Windows world use. (Is there some other "standard" keyboard short-cut in the Linux/Unix world to emulate right click?) Work-around: Install compizconfig-settings-manager, run it, navigate to General Options -> Actions. Expand the "General" node. Find "Slow Animations", confirm that it is set to Shift-F10, and set it to something else. Running Ubuntu 7.10. ** Affects: ubuntu-meta (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- Shift-F10 keyboard shortcut should emulate right click https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/177882 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
