Super keyboard shortcuts to launch places and Deleted items do nothing

[Adam Guthrie]

Binary package hint: unity

Holding down <super> key shows numbers above "Files & Folders", "Application" and "Deleted Items", in my case 5, 6 and 7 respectively.

Pressing 5, 6 or 7 whilst continuing to hold <super> does nothing - I'd expect it to launch the respective interfaces.

Hi Omar,

I'm not sure this a duplicate. #617356 says the shortcuts don't exist, however I'm saying there are numbered shortcuts for these might they do nothing.

Surely they should work or not be there?

[Adam Guthrie (therigu)]

Apologies, I just spelt your name wrong.

oops sorry for marking this duplicate. the problem exists

The problem exists. It does nothing atm because invoking places takes a different code path and we've disabled it to avoid a crasher. Thanks for your patience.

This is the same bug as "super-shortcuts should be "serializable"" #638936.
