Shortcut to toggle case does not work #52

Open rovf opened 9 months ago

rovf commented 9 months ago

Geany 1.38 on MacOS:

According to the annotation in the menu, Edit/Format/ToggleCase is assigned to the shortcut Option-Command-U. However, pressing this key combination does not have any observable effect, while selecting "ToggleCase" from the menu works.

The shortcut is Macos specific I think, transferred to Macos specific issues (the linux shortcut ctrl+alt+u works here).

The default keybindings are currently identical for all platforms (linux/Windows/macOS) and some of them don't work on macOS correctly (because they conflict with other global keybindings specific to macOS). Just change the keybinding to something that works.

Well, I don't have a globbal keybinding for ctrl+alt+u, so I don't think there is a conflict.

How can I explicitly define the keybinding in Geany?

elextr commented 9 months ago

Menu->Edit->Preferences->Keybindings?

This is currently set to <primary><alt>u. I guess <primary> is the denotation of the "Apple" key (labelled command on the Apple keyboard)?

Some key combinations don't work for some mysterious reason - I haven't figured out why.

Yes. To override it to something else, just double-click the line (or press the Change button below) and enter the key combination you want to use.
