12:22 < Guest47651> Hello. Does someone know how to fix this problem? I use Ctrl+Shift combination to switch | |
keyboard layout, and because of that I can't use combinations with Ctrl+Shift no more, like | |
Ctrl+Shift+T in Firefox. | |
12:25 < kennylevinsen> which method did you use to configure the switch to occur? | |
12:32 < Guest47651> My sway config: https://pastebin.com/zM2afNGx | |

12:33 < Guest47651> I use method which is described in wiki | |

12:33 < kennylevinsen> the switch is handled by libxkbcommon, which consumes the events. | |
12:35 < Guest47651> And? | |

12:37 < kennylevinsen> this means that the combo cannot be used for anything else. | |
12:37 < kennylevinsen> and the bug related to it is 16 years old: | |
https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/xorg/xserver/-/issues/258 | |
12:40 < kennylevinsen> I'd recommend picking a combo that is not modifiers used for anything else (e.g. | |
win_space_toggle). You can also bindsym a xkb_switch_layout if you want something other | |
than the pre-defined xkb rules to do the switch. | |
