Hello all! Long time, no write ;-) Still, I can't get the shortcuts to work with Russian layout, but now I noticed the following: they do work for main menu and in other places (like in text editor), but they do not work on the canvas. I am using last week's cvs built from source. So, say if I select an object, I can press Alt + E, C - this will follow to the Edit menu and copy an object. I can trigger and browse any menu like this Russian layout. In text editor, I can copy/cut/paste text (Ctrl + ...), apply/close (), etc. But on canvas, none of the modifier keys work (and, thus, shortcuts do not work either). I remember that this problem exists since last spring, and I had 3 different systems (and, thus, libraries configurations) since then. Artemio.
