The keyboard settings dialog won't let me add key shortcuts. I added a new app entry but it did not show up. I see this warning in the console window. I get the window to add a command but I am presented with the keybinding window. (xfce4-keyboard-settings:354239): Gdk-CRITICAL **: 16:42:00.920: Window 0x5645c181d280 has not been made visible in GdkSeatGrabPrepareFunc 4:42 PM 4:42 PM (xfce4-keyboard-settings:354239): libxfce4kbd-private-WARNING **: 16:42:00.920: Could not grab the keyboard. I am running gtk 3.24.12 and apparently this is related to https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gtk/issues/1073 according to irc channel.
This is due to one of the depreciation fixes in the 4.14 branch https://git.xfce.org/xfce/libxfce4ui/log/?h=xfce-4.14 since 4.14.1 does not show this bug.
Created attachment 9128 quick fix Either we go with this patch or keep the deprecated function.
I applied the patch locally and I just successfully binded the calculator key on my Microsoft Keyboard to launch a calculator program. Are there any other areas that I should test for the original change?
