[Keymap] pressing shift doesn't show uppercase characters if KeymapSwitcher is installed

[diver]

Keymap preflet doesn't show upper case characters, it used to work until Keymap rewrite.
Tested in hrev32436 in VirtualBox 3.0.4.

It seems to work here. Do you have a specific keymap where it doesn't work or any tip to reproduce the error? I know it can be hard to tell if it never works on your configuration..

[diver]

I tried to remove Keymap settings:
rm ~/config/settings/Key_map
Launched Keymap and selected "American" and still can't see uppercase characters.

Clicking Shift button in the Keymap preflet do show uppercase characters. Should it show it if you press actual keyboard shift button?

[axeld]

It should always show them, and also does that over here :-)

[diver]

Strange, I could only reproduce it when I used my attachment:ticket:4306:UserBuildConfig​

[stippi]

That sounds like it is a user error then. Maybe you have a messed up keymap or something, which you copy in your UserBuildConfig.

I've found the cause of this behavior by commenting out every line in my UserBuildConfig. It turns out it is KeymapSwitcher that blocks uppercase characters in Keymap preflet.
As soon as I move /boot/common/add-ons/input_server/filters/keymap_switcher to desktop everything is working OK.
Reopening... Siarzhuk :-) ?

Hm... Really, looks "my" one. :-\

Fixed in KeymapSwitcher 1.2.5 that will be available soon as Optional Package.
