Bug Description
Fresh install of Linux Mint 19.1 Cinnamon.
Kicad version info:
Version: 5.1.0-060a0da~
wxWidgets: 3.0.4 Unicode and Boost 1.65.1
Platform: Linux 4.15.0-46-generic x86_64, 64 bit
Installed Kicad per the instructions here:
When I'm in Pcbnew, Footprint Editor, or Gerber Viewer and I press F1 the screen zooms in as expected, but the help file also opens in my browser and my browser gains focus. I am NOT seeing this problem in Eeschema, Symbol Editor, or Page Layout Editor. All the settings in Kicad are default. No hotkeys have been changed.
Fun fact: The "View" menu in all of the Kicad applications lists zoom in/out as ALT+F1 and ALT+F2. In Linux Mint those hotkey combos are showing all the workspaces and showing the run bar respectively. None of the Kicad applications respond to those hotkey combos. I can't see in Mint's settings that either of those hotkey combos are actually map to any function though, and I have been through the list of hotkeys several times.
