Bug 1987

Summary: SDL_WINDOW_INPUT_GRABBED doesn't work for ALT and SUPER keys on Ubuntu
Product: SDL Reporter: bonsairobo
Component: *don't know*Assignee: Ryan C. Gordon <icculus>
Status: RESOLVED WONTFIX QA Contact: Sam Lantinga <slouken>
Severity: normal    
Priority: P2    
Version: HG 2.0   
Hardware: x86   
OS: Linux

I haven't tested this on any other OS. Even with a window that should be grabbing keyboard and mouse input, the ALT and SUPER keys bring you out of the SDL window. I don't know if this is an intentional design or not, but it seems odd considering ALT-TAB does NOT work with input grabbed.

This is a "feature" of the Unity window manager, and there's nothing we can do about it.

Sorry!
