shift+space changes language in fedora (Gnome desktop)

0

Shift+space is nowhere defined to change language but it does! It's super annoying because shift+space normally should insert non-breaking space which is so frequently needed in Persian.

Just to clarify, are you working with an "off-the-shelf" implementation of Fedora and Gnome (you haven't customized anything or redefined those keys, etc.)? The language is set in Fedora's system settings and just a single language is set anywhere, or what other languages are set and where? Does Shift-Space change languages in every app or just a specific one? What language does it change it to? – fixer1234 – 2019-05-19T08:59:55.940

  • Yes I do. I just remember I touched language settings maybe during the setup. 2. I added Persian in inputs. So it's En and fa now. 3. Yes it does so in every app. 4. The alternative language. If it's fa , it's changed to en and vice versa.

    It looks like Linux provides for keyboard shortcuts to switch languages. Shift-space may be a default setting, but you may be able to change that. I spotted this article about Ubuntu: https://www.howtogeek.com/howto/17508/add-keyboard-input-language-to-ubuntu/. Fedora is probably similar.
