What I did:
- Use i3 with the default
/etc/i3/configfile - Enable numpad
- Launch
resizemode with$mod+r - Press
escapeto quit the mode
What I saw:
Nothing, the escape key is not taken account.
What I expected instead:
Quit the resize mode when pressing escape.
Notes
Note that a lot of combinaisons does not work when num lock is enabled (All keybindings where shift is involved, e.g $mod+shift+r to restart i3).

Looking at this now.
Should be fixed now as well.
@stapelberg: With the default config at commit 2244c84 and US keyboard layout, resize mode works correctly, but most regular keybindings with Shift still do not work with NumLock. Here is what I’ve found for all

If you still encounter keybindings which don’t work with numlock enabled, please let me know how to reproduce (ideally, with the default i3 config aside from one addition, and with the US keyboard layout).
I’m still working the RandR 1.5 changes (took notes on the airplane, need to realize them via git still), but looking at the commit in question, this oughtn’t be too bad to figure. I guess this part needs review:
