Description Kamil Páral 2012-05-04 21:28:25 UTC 
I created a custom keyboard shortcut. But I can't assign Ctrl+Alt+W combination to it. The problem is that Ctrl+W is used to close currently open "sub-panel" of control-center and return to the main hub. When I try to assign that shortcut, I'm returned to the main control-center window. I had to use dconf-editor to set it.

Fedora 17
control-center-3.4.1-1.fc17.x86_64

    shell: Don't handle shortcuts with excess modifiers
    
    Ctrl+Alt+W shouldn't be handled the same way as Ctrl+W.
