I'm an AZERTY user, so to type numbers without using the num pad we need to use Caps lock/shift and the same thing for a lot of other special characters. So I realized that on Ubuntu, caps lock is only used to capitalize letters. As I got used to using caps lock instead of shift, this became my number 1 issue while switching from windows to Ubuntu, anyone got any ideas on how to fix this?

  • Go to Keyboard options.
  • Select your layout then keyboard layouts options -> Caps Lock behavior -> then select Caps Lock Toggles ShiftLock instead of default.

  • Can you provide a clearer explanation? I can't seem to find the "Caps Lock behavior" Option. – Adya Mar 08 '21 at 16:23

    @Adya You need to go to Gnome Tweaks, see https://askubuntu.com/questions/1093236/where-is-keyboard-layout-options-on-ubuntu-18-10 – Daniel Aug 21 '21 at 19:59
