The Colour Contrast Analyser (CCA) helps you determine the legibility of text and the contrast of visual elements, such as graphical controls and visual indicators.
Describe the bug
CCA uses cmd-shift-rightArrow (or leftArrow) to move the CAA window between workspaces.
This overrides the standard shortcut for selecting a line of text, which overlaps my use of CAA (writing accessibility reports).
It was difficult to find the source of my lost functionality, because CAA doesn't have to be the active window to override the shortcut. (In another full-screen application, I only saw that I could no longer highlight text.)
Desktop (please complete the following information):
OS: Mac
Version: Sonoma 14.5
To Reproduce
Open CAA
Open a text editor
Make text editor fullscreen
Type a line or two of text in the editor (in RTL language, ie English, for these instructions)
Use cmd-shift-leftArrow at the end of a line of text, and see that the cursor does not move, and nothing is highlighted.
Use cmd-leftArrow and see that the cursor moves to the beginning of the line. (This is just PoC that this command should work).
Expected behavior
cmd-shift-leftArrow at the end of a line of text selects the entire line of text.
cmd-shift-rightArrow at the beginning of a line of text selects the entire line of text.
