[Bug 1108064] [NEW] HUD messes up application's Alt key bindings

 

You have been subscribed to a public bug:

If Alt-key is assigned to HUD, Alt key doesn't work correctly in some
applications.

For example, Blender doesn't accept Alt key press at all.  See a bug
report in Blender bug tracker for detail:

http://projects.blender.org/tracker/?func=detail&atid=498&aid=33831&group_id=9

When pressing Alt key, Blender receives unnecessary FocusOut and FocusIn
events, so Blender immediately forgets the Alt key is pressed down.
Blender developer was very angry with Unity's such strange behavior.

In Emacs, after select a region, Alt key press sometimes cancels the
selection unexpectedly, so I can do nothing in the region.


Unity 6.12.0-0ubuntu0.2
Ubuntu 12.10 amd64
