How to disable emoji shortkey

[nonametrader]

Hi guys.

How can I disable the emoji shortkey (CTRL + SHIFT + E). Emoji shortcut prevents functions in third party apps where this shortcut has some functionality ( like Visual studio code )
The problem appears after installation of latest Linux Mint Tara.

Hi,
Assuming that you are running with IBus, go to Mint menu and type 'IBus preferences'.
You will see a tab named: 'Emoji' where you can change the shortcut.

I had this problem on Linux Mint, which doesn't seem to use `ibus`.
The solution is to run vscode with the env var GTK_IM_MODULE="xim".

You will need to modify your shorcuts (in the main menu, and in the panel icon if you use one):

from

Code: Select all

/usr/share/code/code --no-sandbox --unity-launch %F

to

Code: Select all

env GTK_IM_MODULE="xim" /usr/share/code/code --no-sandbox --unity-launch %F
