Shortcuts don't trigger active.

[jaredallard]

I'm registering as such:

  /* register key events */
  var gui = require('nw.gui');

  var option = {
    key : "Ctrl+T"
  };

  // Create a shortcut with |option|.
  var shortcut = new gui.Shortcut(option);

  shortcut.on('active', function(e) {
    console.log("Global desktop keyboard shortcut: active.");
  });

  // Register global desktop shortcut, which can work without focus.
  gui.App.registerGlobalHotKey(shortcut);

When Ctrl+T is pressed, nothing happens. If I change the key to "T" the input is intercepted, but nothing happens.

nw: 0.12.2
platform: linux
arch: x64

Can confirm, Linux shortcuts aren't behaving correctly on 0.12.2, 0.10.4 works fine.

similar problems here on ubuntu 15.04 and 14.04

Anything, @rogerwang?

Same problems on Fedora 22

I can't reproduce this issue on Linux with nwjs-sdk-v0.22.3. When press 'Ctrl + T', 'active' event is triggered, and the console log is displayed.

close until there is more information.
