need to press ":" twice in order to see it appear #39

Open epegzz opened 10 years ago

epegzz commented 10 years ago

When i press ":" the first time nothing happens. But when I type it one more time the ":'" appears.

Note: I do not use a default US layout. To Type characters like {}():;<>[] I use the capslock key plus a normal letter. All those mappings work fine with atom, except of the ":" which is mapped to Capslok + g (g = key code 0x29)

1) I am using my own custom layout 2) http://take.ms/nMNkX that's what i see :)

epegzz commented 10 years ago

Oh, right, and Capslock is mapped to ALT_L, so ALT_L + g produces ":" in my Layout.

nathansobo commented 10 years ago

Could you post your custom layout somewhere? That will help us reproduce the problem.

The colon ( : ) is also not working on my keyboard either.

How come this bug is from 30 Jun 2014 and wasn't closed yet? After 1 hour using Atom I thought it was going to be this time I was leaving Brackets :| Such a small bug and so big the annoyances caused. Makes it impossible to write CSS...

@penafo which keyboard layout are you using?

epegzz commented 8 years ago

Sad to hear it's still not fixed. Was about to give Atom another try soon.

winstliu commented 8 years ago

@epegzz While I'm not sure #35 directly pertains to you, it might be worth it to subscribe there as the fix for #35 will probably fix your issue as well.

epegzz commented 8 years ago

Yeah, just saw that myself, sounds promising. Any idea when the current electron branch will be used in another Atom release?

winstliu commented 8 years ago

There's currently no ETA. Right now we're trying to update to the latest 0.36.x version, and then we'll probably start updating to 0.37.x.

I already commented on #35 the problem that was originating it.

Atom shouldn't allow external plugins to change users keyboard's "normal" keys in that manner.... allowing a plugin to change the function of a key as basic as the colon is going to kill the user-experience on Atom as a whole.

Why not forcing all 3rd party plugins to use ONLY something like CTRL+SHIFT+somthing for theirs shortcuts and prompting the user to change them in case on install a new plugin some shortcuts "collide" with already registered shortcuts?
