[Bug 30561] New: Intercept Alt-F1/Alt-F2 combinations in wineconsole
http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=30561 Bug #: 30561 Summary: Intercept Alt-F1/Alt-F2 combinations in wineconsole Product: Wine Version: unspecified Platform: x86 OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: blocker Priority: P2 Component: -unknown AssignedTo: wine-bugs(a)winehq.org ReportedBy: techtonik(a)gmail.com Classification: Unclassified Orthodox file managers, such as Far Manager, DN and etc. use hardwired Alt-F1/Alt-F2 shortcuts for calling disk menu. These are the most frequently used ones and there should be a way to processes them in wineconsole application instead of giving up the control to system. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.

Wineconsole is a tool with command line parameters and it can be told what keys are important for the program, so there is a way for it to know that. This is what this report is about. It is possible to specify from command line, which system key combinations are vital for the program. --keys-exclusive="AltF1 AltF2" - would be nice. Another way is like VirtualBox does - intercepts all keyboard input in windowed mode unless you press a certain master key (for example, RCtrl). wineconsole can have another command line parameter like --master-key for switching in/out of exclusive mode. There is a third way - use context menu on the wineconsole screen to configure exclusive keys and persist the configuration. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.

It seems like your DE or Window Manager has these shortcuts assigned for something else, and if it's the case, I don't think you should blame Wine - fix your keyboards shortcuts at first. In Windows, I believe, you cannot even assign system level shortcuts to applications, e.g. try to make any application react to Win+R - your app just won't be able to intercept this shortcut unless the app reads events directly from the keyboard driver.

Try GNOME 3.
In Windows, I believe, you cannot even assign system level shortcuts to applications, e.g. try to make any application react to Win+R - your app just won't be able to intercept this shortcut unless the app reads events directly from the keyboard driver.
Read above. VirtualBox is able to cope with that even on Windows, and I can't see why wineconsole can't do that too.
I guess this bug is INVALID/WONTFIX.
I'd leave it as enhancement until somebody proves it is not feasible. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.

Work fine here as well. Configure your window manager to not use Alt-F1, Alt-F2.
I'd like to avoid touching global configuration if there is a way to override that only for a single window. (In reply to comment #10)
Tested with far2 and wine-1.5.3.
Far2, Wine 1.5.1, Fedora 16 stable.
Closing duplicate.
Wine can't and won't intercept all keys for a sake of it. It's expensive and highly unreliable. Regardless how much applications this might break.
Your logic is contradicting. "Wine can't" and "It's expensive" are mutually exclusive. Can you tell why VirtualBox is reliable? Can you confirm that wineconsole and wine in your context are the same thing (I speak only about wineconsole)? Unless there is a proof for a serious technical problem I'd like to keep this as an enhancement. There are chances that somebody finds a way to copy/paste relevant code from VirtualBox and make the behaviour optional. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.
