Situation

  • GNOME Shell
  • AutoKey / autokey-gtk
  • it has a predefined shortcut "adr" which should write an address after hitting space
  • and a shortcut "date" which should write the current date (after hitting tab)

Screenshot of settings in AutoKey

Problem

  • no matter what I define, "adr" or "date" it always inserts as much blank lines as the template uses

Example:

  • "date" should autocomplete after pressing space to "13/08/01" but it inserts one empty line
  • "adr" should do my full address but it inserts 4 empty lines

Question

What could be wrong with my AutoKey? Do you need additional information?
