Gimp selection tool bug

GIMP 2.4.0-rc3
Debian 4 unstable

Using selection tools in picture, i can not get "Subtrackt from the current sellection" to work just pressing Ctrl key. Though it is marked on toolbox, that pressing Ctrl should switch subtrackt mode and highlight marks correct entry. Pressing Ctrl turns on Move window mode instead - i can move window the picture is in. If i mark subtrackt mode by mouse - it works as it is intended to work. I believe it is bug, not a feature;)

Your window manager intercepts the Ctrl key then. There's nothing the application (GIMP) can do. You will have to reconfigure your window manager if you want to use the Ctrl key for GIMP.
