Description Christian Stadelmann 2017-12-02 18:58:35 UTC
Created attachment 364826 [details]
Screenshot of evolution task editor and gnome-shell notification

Steps to reproduce:
1. open evolution
2. in evolution, open any date chooser, e.g. from
2.a contact editor, 2nd tab, birthday
2.b new task, start or end time

What happens:
Gnome-shell pops up a modal dialog (see screenshot attached), asking whether I want evolution to lock global key combinations.

What should happen:
No unnecessary distortion of user.

Additional info:
This issue has not been present on GNOME 3.24 (Fedora 26). It is probably a result of changes to gnome-shell made in 3.26 for supporting key grabbing.

gnome-shell dialog text translated back to english using the de.po file [1]:
> Evolution wants to inhibit shortcuts
> 
> You can restore shortcuts by pressing Shift+Ctrl+Esc.
> 
> [Deny]        [Allow]

This issue is not present with the calendar widget in gtk3-widget-factory or created and previewed in glade.
