Intellisense bug with UK keyboard #130

Closed benrhughes closed 10 years ago

benrhughes commented 11 years ago

From Ryan Oclee

Typing + into the new task field works as expected with the projects menu coming up but @ does not invoke the contexts menu. I tried typing “ and strangely enough it brings up the contexts menu!

Perhaps it is because I have a UK keyboard layout which could be different to Australia or USA?

I have the same issue.

I can confirm that the @ symbol and the double quote are swapped on UK keyboards relative to US and Australian keyboards.

Unfortunately I'm not a .NET programmer so I don't know how to help: I'd guess it's something like having programmed the physical key on the keyboard rather than indirectly via a locale-dependent keyboard map.

Not a deal-breaker, since I use a US keyboard at home anyway, so half the time I hit the wrong key...

Thanks for a great app: I'm finding it very useful. Works better than the iPad version :-)

Thanks for the confirmation - I'll have to do some poking around and see if there's a way to be keyboard-agnostic.

Glad you like the app :)

Cheers,

I frequently work with a French (Canadian) keyboard and so will test this sometime at work.

I have a Norwegian keyboard, where the @-key is invoked by pressing ctrl+alt+2 or Alt Gr+2. However I must press shift + 2 (which is the quote mark ") to invoke the intellisens. Similarly + is right of 0 in a Norwegian keyboard and I need to press shift + + (which is the question mark "?") to invoke the other intellisens.
