language switch and hotkeys

Sun Apr 10, 2011 10:12 am
Greetings, colleagues.

On my system the input languages are switched by Ctrl+Shift. And ANY combination like Ctrl+Shift+... (like Ctrl+Shift+V or something else) fails to work since after Ctrl+Shift are pressed the language is switched.

Maybe, there's some way to make KDE react on release of Ctrl+Shift keys, not on Ctrl+Shift pressing?

Please, help.

Best regards, Aleksey.

OS: OpenSuse 11.4, KDE 4.6.0

Not sure if it's a bug or if it can be solved, but you can always change the shortcut to change the input language. System Settings -> (Hardware ->) Input Devices -> (Keyboard ->) Layouts -> Shortcuts for Switching Layout.

Thanks for reply.

Well, that's clear. And I changed my language switcher to CapsLock. However, if KDE is able to act only on hotkeys pressing, but not on hotkeys release, that's inconvenient feature :-(
