Ubuntu 17.10 issue with F10 shortcut












3















I did a fresh install of 17.10 and have an issue with the F10 shortcut. I need the F10 to close Midnight Commander in terminal. In Unity I knew how to disable the shortcut, but in gnome this seems not to work at all. I did tried:



Settings > Devices > Keyboard > Keyboard Shortcuts


and disabled anything containing F10 with no luck. In terminal I disabled the shortcuts as well. Also some old solutions like this:



~/.config/gtk-3.0/gtk.css
@binding-set NoKeyboardNavigation {
unbind "<shift>F10"
}

* {
gtk-key-bindings: NoKeyboardNavigation
}


seems not to work.



Any help will be appreciated, thks.

  • I assume you're talking about gnome-terminal. Have you turned off its Prefereces -> "Enable the menu accelerator key (F10 by default)"?

You can disable the handling of F10 in GNOME Terminal's Preferences dialog, General tab.



While at it, you might also want to disable Alt+letter mnemonics here, as well as F1 (and if required, F11 too) under the Shortcuts tab.

To disable F10 to access Terminal menu:



1) sudo apt install dconf-tools



2) run dconf-editor > browse to org/gnome/terminal/legacy



3) turn off menu-acceletator-enabled (Custom Value -> false)



4) close the terminal, open it again



Thanks firepol for your suggestion.

Though I feel egmont's answer is the best solution, maybe this additional option may be useful to someone.



If you don't want to:




  • perform any mouse clicks

  • disable F10 opening menu (for some reason)


You can also (as DarkDust points out) emulate F10 key press by pressing: ESC followed by 0
