[Bug 1501004] Re: Comma inserted when pressing AltGr or Alt key in evolution to/cc input fields

 

I also investigated the "focus" theory a bit further:

// Find evolution window id
$ xdotool getmouselocation

// Focus the "TO" input field, type some letters follow by [AltGr] + [2]
(@ on Danish keyboard)

$ xev -id 23181333 -event keyboard -event focus

So to me this seems to confirm the theory.
Any XOrg gurus out there who can confirm this and can figure out who steels the focus? Invisible Ubuntu HUD?

Title:
  Comma inserted when pressing AltGr or Alt key in evolution to/cc input
  fields

Status in evolution package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  
  This bug was originally reported in Bug #943104 on Ubuntu 12.04, but it is still present in Ubuntu 15.10 Wily Werewolf (development branch)

  Both alt and altgr produces an unexpected comma character when pressed
  after msc. characters in the "to" and "cc" input fields in evolution
  mail.  I am using Danish keyboard with nodeadkey, bus as described in
  Bug #943104 this also effect other localizations.

   I still haven't been able to reproduce this in any other programs
  than evolution, so maybe the bug should be reported on evolution
  instead.
