Guake: Custom keyboard shortcut to launch guake not working after upgrade from 0.4.4 to 0.8.3 (shift+alt+t)

Created on 28 Jan 2016  路  12Comments  路  Source: Guake/guake

I had a custom shortcut of shift+alt+t to launch Guake in 0.4.4. And just upgraded to 0.8.3 and the shortcut doesn't work anymore.

I am on Ubuntu 14.04 and using the webupd PPA. I completely uninstalled with a apt-get purge guake too but no luck.

I was however to get a ctrl+` shortcut working though, but really want my old shortcut back.

Any news? I just want to hit F12 and have Guake available, as I'm used to...

launch or display? we have changed to key binder library this may be the cause. does it work with other shortcut?

Display, once it is already launched I cannot use and shift+alt+t combination. I can use ctrl + ` though.

Interesting, I also cannot paste or copy with ctrl + shift +c/v anymore. I didn't relate this but I think they are related.

I just jumped back to 0.7.2 and the ctrl+shift+t keyboard shortcut is working now. Still no copy/paste though.

Indeed, Ctrl+shift+[any letter] doesn't seem to work, but Ctrl+Shift+F12 works. Weird

Thanks for confirming this.

Thanks

So, in #560 I see that one of the issues is there is no unbind_all() anymore and we need to specifically call unbind. There is one place where we unbind now => https://github.com/Guake/guake/pull/560/files#diff-455aac7e7f11bc78c3a502a3e136925eR1009. I don't actually have a "~/.gconf/apps/guake/keybindings/global/show_hide". Not sure if gconf_path means it is actually looking there though. Looks like I should be able to get the dev version installed again and step debug this soon.

Friends, I have a similar problem. After upgrading from 0.8.1 to 0.8.6, hotkeys for new tab(Ctrl-E in my configuration) and close tab(Ctrl-w) are not working anymore. I rolled back to version 0.8.1 and these functions works as expected now. I tested it on versions 0.8.2, 0.8.3, 0.8.4 too - hotkeys not work on these versions.

Should I create a new task or this behavior corresponds to this issue?
@Stibbons what do you think about it?
