Hello! I’m new in Fedora and Linux at all. Recently switched to Fedora from Ubuntu and there is the same problem. When i use my system with English layout i have all my shortcuts available, but as i switch to Russian some shortcuts become unavailable. I read all the forums, asked GPT, but i found no solution to this problem.
For example,
When I want to switch windows i use Alt+Tab and then if i want to close I use Alt+Q. In English it goes well, in Russian it just not works. With Ctrl+C and Ctrl+V same problems, copy works in Russian, paste doesn’t work. I tried to write bash-scripts, delete “IBus”, change gsettings - nothing works.
This is just a guess, but could it be that when using Cyrillic layout, you’re pasting with the Cyrillic letter corresponding to the Latin letter V, which is elsewhere on the keyboard than the Latin letter V on an English keyboard layout? Apparently, the key to the right of letter C is taken into account for pasting, irrespective of the keyboard layout used (be it Latin or Cyrillic).
If the above is true, you might want to check this reasoning for the other shortcuts too.
I tried Ctrl+V Ctrl+C in text editor and it works fine. But when i want to copy text from text editor to terminal I can’t do it. Even with Ctrl+Shift+V. And Alt+Q doesn’t works too.
Ctrl+V working is a step forward. Be informed that Alt+Q is not a standard shortcut for closing windows (at least not under GNOME), but rather Ctrl+Q, which, again, seems to be working.
Shift+Ctrl+V in a terminal didn’t work on my end either.
I also use Cyrillic keyboard input source (Bulgarian traditional phonetic in my case) and most of the shortcuts do not work on it. I don’t know if it’s a bug or not, and it might be inconvenient for some folks, but for me the workaround is to simply not even try to use any keyboard shortcuts at all when typing anything in Cyrillic.
