How to bind a keyboard shortcut with certain left or right modifier key in Ubuntu 18.04
In Ubuntu 18.04 keyboard shortcut settings do not differentiate between left and right modifier keys (e.g. Show All Applications - Super+A).
Is there a remap-free way to assign a combination with specific left or right modifier key to a certain action (e.g. Super_R+A)?
P.S.: Surprisingly a single Super_R works if I set it without <>: gsettings set org.gnome.shell.keybindings toggle-application-view "['Super_R']" but I failed to map Super_R+A
