[Bug 963935] Re: Super unusable as a window movement key

 

Detect all the possible conflicts with shortcuts is almost impossible.
But you can easily disable the overlay. Closing the bug.

Title:
  Super unusable as a window movement key

Status in Unity:
  Invalid
Status in unity package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  Since the upgrade to Ubuntu 12.04, Super is no longer usable as a
  window movement key, because the move is quickly interrupted by the
  keyboard shotcuts help overlay.

  This is a regression, since changing the movement key to something
  different than Alt is necessary to use several functions in
  applications such as Inkscape and Photoshop (in Wine), which use Alt
  as a modifier.

  Unity should detect when Super is set as a window movement key and not
  display the help overlay in this case.
