3 months ago Hi @linuxni. Thanks for taking the time to submit an issue.
I see we have another report about this at https://github.com/arduino/arduino-ide/issues/2263.
It is best to have only a single issue per subject so we can consolidate all relevant discussion to one place, so I'll go ahead and close this in favor of the other.
If you end up with additional information to share, feel free to comment in the other thread.
Describe the request
Depending on the keyboard language used when Arduino IDE is running, shortcut keys may not work.
Describe the current behavior
Arduino IDE Shortcut Key Problem:
Core issue: The functionality of shortcut keys within the Arduino IDE is determined by the keyboard layout state when the IDE is launched. Specific scenarios: a) Normal operation case:
When Arduino IDE is launched while Mac OS keyboard layout is set to English Result: Shortcut keys (e.g., CMD + C, CMD + V, etc.) work normally
b) Problem case:
When Arduino IDE is launched while Mac OS keyboard layout is set to a non-English language (e.g., Korean) Result: Shortcut keys do not function
Notable points:
Changing the keyboard layout after launching the IDE does not resolve the issue The problem occurs regardless of the IDE's language setting (English/Korean)
Presumed cause: It appears that the Arduino IDE sets its shortcut keys based on the keyboard layout at the time of launch and fails to recognize subsequent changes.
