[0.90] Pre-defined shorcuts can interfere with keyboard layout #289

Open zeroheure opened 4 years ago

This is unusual, and I've found the bug because I have a less known french variant keyboard layout, named "Bépo". In "Bépo" the alt gr + spacebar keys gives the underscore character (_). But in NextSpace alternate + spacebar is the default shorcut for switching layouts and alternate is mapped to alt gr.

Is it possible to chek at startup if shortcut interfere with keyboard layout ?

@zeroheure Alternate is mapped to Super key. Is alt gr mapped to Super in Xorg for your keyboard layout? I need more information to find best solution. After all, you can change switching layout shortcut in "Keyboard Preferences" layout section.
