No possibility to enter some national letters due to conflicts of shortcuts #478

Closed Toma400 closed 5 days ago

Toma400 commented 1 year ago

Describe the bug When you want to write some nation-specific letters, it conflicts with shortcuts to "select all" or "copy" text.

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behaviour:

  1. Try making UITextEntryBox
  2. Use Polish language keyboard
  3. Try entering ą (ctrl + a)

Expected behaviour Appearance of "ą", but selection of all appears instead. I assume ctrl+c will also result with copying instead of "ć".

Hello, just learning about this topic today, via your issue and this medium post.

Do you think checking if Alt is not pressed in the CTRL+ shortcuts would resolve the issue for you? So you could press "Right Alt" which is actually CTRL+ALT+A to still enter the diacritic letters. I don't have a polish keyboard myself (I'm in the UK, but slightly oddly have a US keyboard) so this would very much be a case of changing something and hoping it works.

in 0.6.10 CTRL+ALT+A will not select all the letters. I'm not sure if this will work with Right Alt on a polish keyboard allowing you to still type ą because I do not have one.

Closing this as nobody else has volunteered to test if it is working now. If you find it is still broken, please re-open.
