[Bug 10905] Re: Keyboard shortcuts, window management - Can't use any global keyboard shortcuts or hotkeys when applet/menu is open

 

This bug was fixed in the package unity - 7.1.1+13.10.20131004-0ubuntu1

---------------
unity (7.1.1+13.10.20131004-0ubuntu1) saucy; urgency=low

  [ Brandon Schaefer ]
  * Break the bump detection by moving to the first icon, then down 5
    pixels. Since bump detection needs to move in 3 different
    directions.
  * Move the switcher Alt+<ArrowKey> shortcut handling into nux, from
    compiz. Now nux handles these events instead of compiz. This way its
    makes much more sense code wise and we no longer ungrab the arrow
    gets from X... so Alt+LeftArrow will no longer open the hud. (LP:
    #969039)

  [ Andrea Azzarone ]
  * Fix bad redrawing of dash overlay scrollbar connector. (LP:
    #1233195)
  * Update icon_under_mouse before process mouse movemnt in the tooltip
    manager. (LP: #1172769, #1233666)
  * Hide the tooltip when an app is closed. (LP: #1172769)

  [ Marco Trevisan (Treviño) ]
  * TestIMTextEntry: fix failing tests with IBus, use TEST_F and TEST_P.
  * CairoBaseWindow: only regenerate blur texture when visible and
    damaged. (LP: #1233109)
  * CairoBaseWindow: add fade animator to control both QL and Tooltip
    Removing the animator from LauncherIcon, and handling the tooltip
    animation inside the QL and Tooltip base class.
  * PanelService: close a menu and re-send the keyevent when handling a
    combination Or when we try to open HUD/Dash. Also, close the active
    menu if a new application is opened and focused. (LP: #10905,
    #1234457, #1197071)
  * SimpleLauncherIcon: we need to restore the focus when closing the
    Overlay for activation. (LP: #909870)
  * LauncherIcon: don't try to show again quicklists or tooltip if
    center changed, just move them. (LP: #1234778)
  * AbstractLauncherIcon: add static icon_size property. (LP: #1073103)

  [ Christopher Lee ]
  * Preparing autopilot tests for an upcoming update in autopilot 1.3.

  Keyboard shortcuts, window management - Can't use any global keyboard
  shortcuts or hotkeys when applet/menu is open

  Won't Fix
Status in Unity:

Status in “unity” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Reproduce scenario :
   - left click on an applet
   - try the ^-Alt arrow to switch desktop

  When an applet contextual menu is opened, you can't switch desktop with keyboard shortcuts.
  Normally,we should have a consistent behaviour in regards with the workspace-selector applet, ie :
   - first ^-Alt-arrow (for the workspace-selector : click), the menu is unfolded
   - second ^-Alt-arrow , we go to the next desktop

  ===

  see bug 29894 for not being able to take screenshots when menu is
  open, another symptom of this bug.

  
  ----------------------------------

  Note from Design:

  This is a critical bug, a user should be able to use a global keyboard
  shortcut at any moment, including when a menu is open.  In the
  unlikely case that there is a conflict between the global keyboard
  shortcuts ( see
  https://launchpadlibrarian.net/85352653/Super_key_shutcuts_overlay.png
  ) and the menu keyboard shortcuts, the menu keyboard shortcuts should
  take precedence.
