Hi, Welcome to the Deepin Forum. Something about the caps lock being a dde-session daemon grab, try this :

gsettings set com.deepin.dde.keybinding.mediakey capslock ""
gsettings set com.deepin.dde.keyboard layout-options "['ctrl:swapcaps']"

Copy the Code

Please see this post for a better solution

I have tried this solution for several weeks, sometimes it works sometimes it doesn't .

When it does work it throws a dconf error after every terminal startup and the swap works, after reboots this change is lost.

Could anyone let me know where the config files are to do a manual swap?
