#Control maps to #Hyper or #Super #1189

Does restarting Plover works? (just to be sure. Plover has the local keymap cache) If it does, then you need to merge pull request #1164 . Where do you even get the 105 and 66 value from? On my machine... >>> key_combo.parse_key_combo("Control_L(L)", E._get_keycode_from_keystring)

thanks for the suggestion! restarting plover does unfortunately not work. the keycode 105 is what plover believed to be Control_R, which is the control key I use for my control key bindings. 66 is actually Control_L on my laptop keyboard (I use plover on a plugged in preonic). Control_L of my preonic also has the keycode 37, however when I use 37 instead of 66, I'm getting a Hyper+key combination. `xmodmap -pk` returns the following:There are 7 KeySyms per KeyCode; KeyCodes range from 8 to 255. in case it is relevant, here is also my xkb config; I have moved from xkb config: |

You might have different xkb configuration for these 2 different keyboards. Everything that you've posted shows that 66 is CAPS, not any ctrl key. You can use Does |

Summary
Hi,
thanks for this great program, it has greatly increased my joy of writing. However, recently I've encountered an issue with my control key combinations: while previously e.g. {#Control_L(l)} would execute Control+L as expected, it now executes Hyper(L), while {#Control_R(l)} executes Super(L) (this completely breaks my workflow since I'm using Emacs and hence very much rely on Control key bindings). Other key combinations with Alt and Super work as expected. I had a look into
xkeyboardcontrol.py, and found that when I manually "remap" the Control key code from 105 to 66 insend_key_combinations, things work as expected:Reproducing
I'm not sure what caused this problem/how to reproduce, as previously my control keys worked as expected and I don't remember what caused the control combinations stop working. It might be that the interaction of qmk (I'm using a preonic keyboard instead of the laptop internal keyboard) and xkb (which I use to get a Hyper key for non-plover tasks) somehow confuses the modifier mapping in Plover?
