[Bug 874734] Re: Alt-Backtick Keyboard Shortcut Can Not Be Disabled

 

This bug is still present in 13.10.

The Alt-Grave shortcut is captured by Unity and cannot be removed from
the System Settings -> Keyboard -> Shortcuts dialog or the Unity Tweak
Tool. This prevents other applications from using the shortcut
(RubyMine, for example).

** Changed in: unity
       Status: Expired => Confirmed

** Changed in: unity (Ubuntu)
       Status: Expired => Confirmed

Title:
  Alt-Backtick Keyboard Shortcut Can Not Be Disabled

Status in Unity:
  Confirmed
Status in “unity” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  The 'Alt-Backtick' shortcut for the app switcher is interfering with
  my other applications. How can I disable this without disabling all of
  Unity?

  The Atl-Backtick key combination is commonly used in Emacs, Emacs is
  rendered unusable with Unity intercepting this key combo.
