Cmd+Shift+A hotkey opens Terminal with "apropos" search instead of the Find Action dialog

Thank you so much! This was driving me crazy today.

Thank you for sharing this, super frustrating for a bit there! I updated mine to Shift + Command + P to mimick other editors.

Thanks you! This saved my day.

Thanks! I knew it was a system shortcut intercepting it but for the life of me I couldn't find the one that was causing it.

I cannot reproduce this issue.

The shortcut is configured both in MacOS (10.15.3 (19D76)) and IntelliJ (Ultimate 2019.3.3) on my machine. (OOTB).

IntelliJ also complains on startup, that the shortcut conflicts with a MacOS shortcut. ("Find Action..., Move to Another Changelist... shortcuts conflict with macOS system shortcuts. Modify shortcuts or change macOS system settings.)

However, when pressing Cmd+Shift+A, the Find Action dialog opens without issues.

The warning in IntelliJ must be a false-positive.

Made my day. Thank you so much!

Thanks a lot this saved me from a lot of hassle.

Thank you!

I’ve written a command-line script that can be used to manipulate the settings to disable these shortcuts. It’s available here.

Thanks for the help Elena, webstorm is the best IDE in the planet. You guys are leading the pack. Im a field consultant and no one can keep up with me Im leaving all the competition in the dust.

I could use a way to automatically populate my typescript with jsdoc comments might you know of a way?

Thanks

Brilliant! Thank you. 

in intellij settings i see a warning about "shortcuts conflict with macOS system shortcuts" but it should be nice if there is a link to a help document or a help how to disable the macOS shortcuts

Amazing, thanks!
Maybe webstorm can add a tooltip to help users find the issue faster

Thank you! In Ventura 13.0.1, Should operate like this:

1. Open Apple menu | System Settings | Keyboard | Keyboard Shortcuts | Services
2. Expand Text
3. Uncheck Search man Page Index in Terminal (or change the shortcut)

Just for completness, here is a solution that is terminal oneliner: (credit: https://gist.github.com/theodson/b4282a3b6e54091db4d52a4c3c10ad25)

TEMP_SETTINGS_FILE=$(mktemp -t 'man-shortcuts-off.json')
cat > $TEMP_SETTINGS_FILE <<EOF
{
  "NSServicesStatus": {
    "com.apple.Terminal - Open man Page in Terminal - openManPage": {
      "presentation_modes": {
        "ContextMenu": false,
        "ServicesMenu": false
      },
      "enabled_context_menu": false,
      "enabled_services_menu": false
    },
    "com.apple.Terminal - Search man Page Index in Terminal - searchManPages": {
      "presentation_modes": {
        "ContextMenu": false,
        "ServicesMenu": false
      },
      "enabled_context_menu": false,
      "enabled_services_menu": false
    }
  }
}
EOF
# Settings are stored in the pbs domain. Other settings in this domain will not be overwritten. I’ve included the settings to change in JSON for brevity. They are converted to XML (which `defaults import` expects) before being imported.
plutil -convert xml1 -o - ${TEMP_SETTINGS_FILE} | defaults import pbs -
rm ${TEMP_SETTINGS_FILE}

@Cyrill FYI I already shared my script (which that is a mirror of) in this thread. Glad you found it useful! 🙂

Thanks very much for this… difficult to find. 

Shocked to see how little value all of those Keyboard Shortcuts added – I disabled many in that pane.  

Thank you! tiny fix that made my day!
