            Bug ID: 128529
           Summary: Some keyboard shortcuts don't work when caps lock is
                    used as ctrl key
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: All
                OS: Linux (All)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: minor
          Priority: medium
         Component: LibreOffice
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: jaragunde at igalia.com

Description:
I'm a GNOME user (Fedora 29, but it's been always failing AFAICR), and I've
been using my Caps Lock key as an additional Ctrl key with the switch provided
by the desktop. It used to be more easily accessible but now it's hidden inside
the GNOME tweak tool.

Two-key shortcuts work, like Ctrl+S (Caps+S), but three-key ones don't, for
example, Ctrl+Shift+S (Caps+Shift+S). Using the specific Ctrl key always works.


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Set Caps key as additional Ctrl via: GNOME tweak tool -> Keyboard & Mouse ->
Additional layout options -> Caps Lock behavior -> Caps Lock is also a Ctrl.
2. Open LibreOffice
3. Press Caps Lock + Shift + S.

Actual Results:
No results.

Expected Results:
Expected: "Save as" dialog appears.


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: Yes


OpenGL enabled: Yes

Additional Info:
Workaround: Ctrl+Shift+S still works.

Version: 6.1.6.3
Build ID: 6.1.6.3-7.fc29
CPU threads: 8; OS: Linux 5.3; UI render: default; VCL: gtk3; 
Locale: es-ES (en_US.UTF-8); Calc: group threaded
