[Bug 1226962] Re: Hotkeys not functional in non-latin keyboard layout

[Simos Xenitellis ]

@nazar-pc: Java GUI apps on Linux is a special case. Firstly, they are
no such apps pre-installed, so it is somewhat a non-Ubuntu problem.

Gedit is written in the C programming language and is part of the core
GNOME apps. It is well-support and shortcuts work. It has been working
for 10+ years, since the multi-layout shortcut support was added to
GTK+.

This ability to use shortcuts even when the active layout was not
English, was added to GTK+ (GNOME) at around 2005, perhaps earlier. It
was the first UI toolkit to have such support for shortcuts when the
active layout was not English. Qt did not have it for a long long time
(has it been added there?).

I am inclined to close this report in a few days if we do not get a reproducible case of shortcuts not working.
At the same time, I'll open (if they do not exist) individual reports regarding shortcuts in Java GUI apps and other toolkits that do not have that support.
