Re: [opensuse] Alt+Shift for switching keyboard layout

Hmm... It used to work for me, but I see now that it doesn't. The only
option that still does is "two shifts together change layout" -- which
just happens to be my preferred method of switching... You can try if
it would work for you (check "clear old xkb options" to make sure that
the old setting does not interfere). I don't know how to make it with
either ctrl or alt, though, sorry. Looks like something else in KDE is
re-mapping those, but I cannot find out what at the moment.

Myrosia


In xkb_options, select "enable xkb options" and "alt+shift
change
layout", click apply

Then go to "keyboard shortcuts", select "switch to next
keyboard
layout", select "custom shortcut" and press "alt-shift". If
everything
went correctly with xkb options, this will show up as
ISO_next_group
and will work for changing layouts.

Thanks.
I followed your instructions. Enabled "Alt+Shift change layout"
option in Keyboard Layout/Xkb options.
Next I changed the shortcut for "Switch to next keyboard
layout" action in Keyboard shortcuts. When I clicked Alt+Shift I
got "Alt+ISO_Prev_Group" instead of "ISO_next_group".
I clicked apply, logged out and in.
Alt+Shift has no action, it does not work.
Any idea?

Thanks,

IG
