This is a weird one. I just updated to H19 from H18.5 on Linux. Whenever I press Ctrl + Meta (meta being the "windows" icon key), it triggers the "Save As..." dialog. This is a bit rough since I use Ctrl+Meta+<...> to move around desktops on Linux.

It wasn't happening with H18.5. And I'm not even sure why or how it can happen, since the meta key doesn't map in the Hotkey editor.

Anyone had a similar issue, or have an idea why this is happening or how to fix it?

Thanks!

Sorry to resurrect an old thread, but I ran into this same issue and found a solution that I wanted to share.

In the hotkeys editor, I removed the "Ctrl+Shift+s" hotkey for the "Save As..." command, and now the issue no longer happens for me. Not sure why that has anything to do with it, but at least its a workaround!

Using Houdini 20.0.1122 btw, and version 40.10 of the Gnome windows manager.
