cannot assign desired key combination `<Super>Space` #29

As the title says currently it is impossible to assign the sequence directly. It is working flawlessly when setting it via dconf.

The <Super>Space shortcut is often used by GNOME Shell to switch between input sources (like different keyboard layouts or languages).

To verify its current usage, execute the following command:

gsettings get org.gnome.desktop.wm.keybindings switch-input-source

If this shortcut is indeed in use, consider either removing it or assigning an alternative key combination. After making this adjustment, the extension shortcut assignment should function as intended.

It's possible that GNOME Shell might not be forwarding the combination key to the extension if it's already assigned for switching input sources.

Anyway, feel free to reach out if you have any further queries or if there's anything else I can assist you with.
