* Kxkb: improve TDE Control Centre module.Mavridis Philippe2023-03-241-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 1) Add conflicts check for hotkey checkboxes Due to the ability to set multiple keyboard layout switching hotkeys, it is important to inform the user of conflicting options that are not handled properly by the X.org server when set at the same time (e.g. Win+Space and Alt+Space). This change adds a warning that informs the user about the problem and the conflicting options. This warning is shown only when setting multiple hotkeys via the Xkb options tab, which is for the advanced user. Most users will ever need only one hotkey, and the combobox on the first tab should be more than enough. 2) Add "none" item to layout switching options 3) Replace Reset old options checkbox with radio buttons As per discussion, this makes the function of the option more apparent. WhatIs hints have been added for additional clarity. 4) Update hotkey combobox per server options 5) Avoid duplication of options by querying Xkb for already set options. This was a problem in Append Mode in which `setxkbmap` strings would get too long due to setting already set options. This code checks for already set options and omits them from the new `setxkbmap` call. This does not apply to Overwrite Mode. 6) Overwrite previous grp: options when using the combobox See previous commit message about the addition of hotkeys combobox.

* Kxkb: Improve layout switchingMavridis Philippe2023-03-241-15/+11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 1) New layout switching approach The new approach is based on the "grp" options group of Xkb and so enables us to use predefined X11 layout (group) switching hotkeys like "Caps Lock" or "Shift+Alt" (you can see the full list in the Options tab). The added bonus to this is that we conform to the Xkb setting. The code lets Xkb handle the keyboard layout switching hotkey(s) and is similar to the one that is used in kkbswitch, monitoring for an Xkb group (layout) change event. This solution required me to remove some hacky and obsolete code which was there to support really old pre-XFree-4.2 era systems and included the "include groups" hack. This means that the "Enable latin layout" checkbox is now gone and setxkbmap is only called when the keyboard layouts and/or options are modified, and not for every layout change. 2) Common layout switching hotkeys combobox A combobox was added to the first page of the Keyboard Layouts KCM module. It provides to the users a quick way to set a layout switching key combination. It also controls the "grp" group in the Xkb tab. A special note about this combobox is that, even if Append Mode was selected in the Xkb Options tab, this hotkey will overwrite previous hotkey options. This means that all grp: options will be forced removed before applying the option from the combobox (in contrast to specifying options via the Xkb Options tab, which, in Append Mode, will not get overwritten until next login).
