I created a custom shortcut Ctrl+Alt+T that calls x-terminal-emulator. For some reason, it does not work (nothing happens when hitting the mapping).
I use SpaceFM as my primary file manager on Ubuntu. I typically open folder directly by keyboard shortcuts, so, e.g. Ctrl+Super+W opens my Work folder.
Specifically, I use execute the command spacefm -w /home/rasmus/Work/ by the above shortcut, with the -w ensuring that SpaceFM opens a new window.
However, this new window is not always open on top of the last active window on the workspace.
In short: is there (under Unity) any way to find out which application grabbed some global shortcut? I do not ask for "standard shortcuts" but for some way to get information about actual shortcuts (which app is actually keeping given key just now in my current config)
Longer story:
I have repeatable problems with managing keyboard shortcuts.
I like to use CTRL-ALT + Numpad-keys to align 4 terminal windows on one monitor (One in each corner of the screen). Is there a way (shortcut) to quickly make a particular one active for typing without clicking the window active with the mouse?
System: Ubuntu 11.04/default Unity desktop
As I wanted to try Ratpoison and other mouseless window manager, I used this .xinitrc
There's a keyboard remapping in there and i'm afraid (but not sure it's this...) it messed up my keyboard settings.

In the keyboard shortcuts section, the "switch application" shortcut IS assigned to alt+tab.

I have Ctrl+Alt+T assigned as my keyboard shortcut to launch a Terminal window, but it stopped working after upgrading to 12.10.
I have verified that it is still set in the Keyboard Shortcuts settings menu, and have verified that other shortcuts (e.g.
I mind if there is possible to change from a window to another by binding a key shortcut to every window. I mean for example to go to my navigator i would press alt-q and to switch to skype i would press alt-w thing like that, do you think its possible ?
Hi,I'm using Xfce4 with Compiz.I setup a keyboard shortcut in Xfce to start the terminal easily and it works fine. The only problem is, whenever I start the terminal via shortcut it does not get focused, it's the top window, but the window below still has the focus.
The application I am referring to is Turpial and it is a Twitter client.
The problem is to open the window I need to send twits, I have to right click on a systray icon and select an option.
