How to disable ctrl+alt+l shortcut on Ubuntu 18.04?

  • 772

I've installed an Ubuntu 18.04. When I try to reformatting code shortcut in PyCharm - CTRL+SHIFT+L, Ubuntu raises something - Mate-settings-daemon "" is ready or before:

I suppose it's because this Ubuntu uses this shortcut too but I don't know how to disable it.

I tried to find it in Keyboard shortcuts, but it isn't there.

Do you know how to make it work so I can use this shortcut in PyCharm?

  1. I had the same problem, and managed to fix it through dconf editor. Just did a search for "screensaver", and found the following property with ctrl + alt + l as a shortcut: /org/cinnamon/desktop/keybindings/media-keys/screensaver. Removed the shortcut, and tried reloading Gnome, without effect. After a reboot it worked though, maybe a relogin would do the trick as well.
