Rocket.chat.electron: Using Alt+Shift to change input language opens the Rocket.Chat menu on linux

Created on 23 Oct 2015  路  13Comments  路  Source: RocketChat/Rocket.Chat.Electron

I regularly use Alt+Shift to change input languages. On my Linux box (kubuntu 15.04) pressing Alt+Shift results in the Rocket.Chat menu item being open in addition to changing the input language. As a result I have to press Alt+Shift, Esc to continue the input (which is slower and not a habit).

This might be an Electron issue, I haven't tested with other Electron apps. I haven't tested on Windows either.

I have the same problem with Slack :rage:

I think this should be an Electron issue. I mean it is not rocket.chat who opens menu on Alt press.

Just a note - I can't reproduce it with any of the other menu elements or with other key combinations including Alt (or Alt alone).

I have the same problem with Slack :rage:

Atom also based on electron and does not have this problem. It's really annoying, anybody has a solution?

@sampaiodiego Thank you very much!

Is there any issue about this in electron repository?

Appeared in Rocketchat+ Version 2.10.1 again

@idanielblake as well as in new Slack versions, lol.

// although, looks like the real source of the issue is in Electron#11106 (like it's mentioned above)

@sampaiodiego Can you re-apply the fix again, please? // and add the comment for future developers to DON'T REMOVE THE ANCHORS IN ANY REASON

I hit this bug on Rocket.Chat+ version 2.10.5 on Debian Stretch amd64.

I have this bug on 2.10.5 rocket chat desktop, linux mint 18, this bug very annoing, please, fix it

Reintroduced since 2.16.0
