OK, I don’t care what it says, I found it in mine. I went to that options in layout and there are two settings to look at. “Caps lock behavior” and “Control Position”. “Control position” also has numerous options and one is “Caps Lock as Control, Control as Hyper” and the one just below it is “Caps lock as control” alone. And in “caps lock behavior” there is an option for “caps lock ALSO as control”. Actually both have some really cool options available besides these.

Thanks for referring to under "Options" on the bottom of Layout where you find remap to ctrl option, however, you did not find the option to remap to ctrl+c, which is the issue, and retain that past sessions. That "really cool" (showing our age) option is what is missing.

Ace’s was in a different location than mine. His was >Input devices->keyboard->Advanced tab->Configure Keyboard options. But they are there somewhere, just have to dig around.

Cannot find it myself, while eve he found it would not persist past sessions.

I think we are asking the wrong search question. “Control position” are probably the correct keywords for these options. That is where mine was. Did you get Mint “Cinnamon”? This is why I suggested it, so that I can help find stuff for you on my end.

Yes, Mint 22.1, as said. “Control position” is not ctrl+c. Failing that, maybe remap F1 to ctrl+c, and F2 to ctrl+v. In Windows, I remapped F1 to ctrl+F, since Firefox etc. somehow thinks that people show not want to see the Find bar open for every tab - as if no one would be searching for the same thing on many pages (some browsers even delete your last search term when searching again, as well as not providing a separate search bar).

you hit the “win” key (Super) it will open and close your menu and it can be navigated with the arrow keys. Up, down, left, right as a selector instead of needing your mouse.

Thanks, and Windows offers the like, but that is not what I need.

All I can say my friend is that you want Linux to be windows. You are wanting the new spouse to be exactly like the old spouse without the bad baggage she had.

That is not going to happen. So your options are compromise with the new spouse, or abstain completely. Some sacrifices just have to be made sometimes.

I also had to when I switched to Linux. But it was well worth it in the long run. Me and the new spouse are much happier together than I was with the nasty old spouse.
