Set custom keyboard shortcuts for keyboard layout change by CLI in Cinnamon (Linux Mint)
Setting for set custom keyboard shortcuts via CLI does not fully work on Linux Mint Cinnamon 19.1. Here is what I've done to investigate:
1) Added custom via GUI, assign Ctrl+Alt+z, it shows as Ctrl+Alt+Z in GUI and ~$ gsettings get org.cinnamon.desktop.keybindings.custom-keybinding:/org/cinnamon/desktop/keybindings/custom-keybindings/custom0/ binding
gives ['<Primary><Alt>z']
and it works, app getting started.
2) Deleted assignment in GUI and run ~$ gsettings get org.cinnamon.desktop.keybindings.custom-keybinding:/org/cinnamon/desktop/keybindings/custom-keybindings/custom0/ binding
gives @as
3) Run gsettings set org.cinnamon.desktop.keybindings.custom-keybinding:/org/cinnamon/desktop/keybindings/custom-keybindings/custom0/ binding "['<Primary><Alt>z']"
, then I see assignment in GUI as Ctrl+Alt+Z again, but the shortcut does not work!
Why it does not work and/or what can I do to investigate further?
P.S. Cinnamon specifics for gsettings
