Keyboard shortcuts don't distinguish tap sequence

I have tried to set up keyboard shortcuts to toggle keyboard layout:

Next source L-Shift+R-Shift
Previous source R-Shift+L-Shift

But Ubuntu 18 does not distinguish keyboard tap sequence. Both combinations toggle layout only to next source.

In unity settings the combination look like Shift+ShiftL and Shift+ShiftR. Is there a way to set it so that the order the keys are pressed matters?

Can You explain please what You men when told about "L-Srift", "R-Srift" and what the difference between "L-Srift+R-Srift" and "R-Srift+L-Srift"? – slava Feb 21 '19 at 09:42

Possible duplicate of 18.04 ctrl+shift to change language , but in GNOME Tweaks use Switching to another layout → Both Shift together. – N0rbert Feb 21 '19 at 20:25
How is this a dupe of that? – Zanna Feb 23 '19 at 08:00

What desktop environment and Ubuntu version are you using? – Zanna Feb 23 '19 at 08:03
mature > When i speaking "L-Srift" and "R-Srift" I do mean the keyboard button, which each has own key-code. Difference between "L-Srift+R-Srift" and "R-Srift+L-Srift" is order of pressing the button combinations. – Alex Rydzewski Jul 25 '19 at 09:15
