Comment 1 for bug 1579775

My unity8 desktop session is broken, no app starts, so I can’t observe the issue.

Michael, can you run the following standalone QML example in your unity8 session and let me know whether it works (i.e. something is printed in the window when pressing Ctrl+R or F5)?

import QtQuick 2.5
import QtQuick.Window 2.2
Window {
  width: 400
  height: 300
  Text {
    id: label
    anchors.centerIn: parent
    onTextChanged: timer.restart()
  }
  Timer {
    id: timer
    interval: 2000
    onTriggered: label.text = ""
  }
  Shortcut {
    sequence: StandardKey.Refresh
    onActivated: label.text = "Ctrl+R pressed!"
  }
  Shortcut {
    sequence: "F5"
    onActivated: label.text = "F5 pressed!"
  }
}
