2012-03-05 11:24:37 Simos Xenitellis  description I mapped the alt-shift combination to switch keyboard layouts. When I do this, HUD often pops up. If I keep the alt key pressed for slightly longer than usual, HUD does not show up (I guess this is not recorded as 'tapping'). The default shortcut for most scripts to switch between keyboard layouts is Alt+Shift, or another key combination that includes Alt. HUD uses the Alt key to pop up. When trying to switch keyboard layouts, the HUD comes up. The HUD gains key input, and the keyboard layout does not change. A user needs to press Alt+Shift again to actually switch layouts, then press Esc to close the HUD. In terms of usability, it is extremely annoying and unusable. While Alt + <anykey> can be filtered and does not activate the HUD, Alt + <modifier key> (such as Shift) is not filtered and activates the HUD. The default shortcut to switch keyboard layouts for Greek, Arabic and Russian (and possibly other scripts), involves the Alt key. Because Windows have the default shortcut Alt+Shift, the majority of scripts accept as a default the Alt+Shift shortcut. Therefore, this is a big issue that must be solved before 12.04.
