Description Atri 2016-06-11 20:06:49 UTC
On my convertible laptop (Lenovo Thinkpad Yoga 260), the real Win key on the keyboard maps to Super_L and shows the overview when pressed. In addition, there is also a button on the laptop screen which maps to Super_R. If pressing this also took me to the overview that would have been a big help when the laptop is folded into the tablet mode. However, this does not currently work. Pressing the Super_R button at present does nothing. I can use the tweak tool to change the "Switch between desktop and overview" key to Super_R, but then only the button on the screen works (I checked this) and the Super_L does not. It would be really useful if both Super_L and Super_R could be simultaneously mapped to the overview switching functionality.
