For some reason, FLUID's FL_COMMAND+FL_SHIFT+'c' shortcut for File->Write Code no longer works within KDE 4 for openSUSE 11.1

I noticed this some time ago when I was using openSUSE 10.3. As a result, I'm not sure what rev of 1.3.x it started.

My current info:
FLTK 1.3.x r6645 (SVN)
openSUSE 11.1
KDE 4.1.96 release 78.2 (KDE 4.2 RC1)
Xorg 7.4-10.1

I have posted a simple workaround that does not correct the problem. It is only meant as a temporary workaround.

The patch changes the shortcut from FL_COMMAND+FL_SHIFT+'c' (Ctrl+Shift+c) to FL_COMMAND+FL_ALT+'c' (Ctrl+Alt+c).

I can confirm under Fedora3 + FLWM.

Definitely not the window manager eating events, because if
I move over to fltk-1.1.7's fluid, same SHIFT-CTRL-C works fine.

Seems *all* the SHIFT+CTRL shortcuts are not working in 1.3.x fluid.
(Regular CTRL-(X) shortcuts work OK)

Some interesting notes:

1) If I turn on CAPS LOCK, then SHIFT-CTRL-(X) shortcuts work OK.
2) With CAPS LOCK on, CTRL-(X) shortcuts *stop* working.
3) If I make an app with SHIFT-(X) shortcuts, they work OK, whether CAPS LOCK is on or not.

Posted an updated patch that can be applied to (at the time) latest svn (rev 7235)

Attached is a patch (str2131-r9162.patch) that changes the File->"Write Code..." shortcut to AL+CTRL+c where CTRL is set using FL_COMMAND. This seems to work just fine.

Despite its name, the patch applies cleanly to svn r10223.

This seems to be a problem of the core library. I suggest testing this with test/keyboard on those machines. No problems on macOS or my Ubuntu VM.

I do agree however that the Fluid shortcuts are very - um - uncommon.

Is this still an issue, or can we close this STR?

I don't think that changing the shortcut from command/shift/c to command/alt/c is a proper solution because this would break the habits of many FLTK users.

Unless we can *add* other menu items or (hidden?) shortcuts that do the same?

This STR has not been updated by the submitter for two or more weeks and has been closed as required by the FLTK Configuration Management Plan. If the issue still requires resolution, please open a GitHub Issue and refer to this STR.

Fluid has been updated a lot, new code can probably not be compared with the given patches.

I'm closing this issue now w/o resolution. If there is still an issue, please open a GitHub Issue. Thanks.
