Vertical pipe shortcut not working on Mac OS X

Answered

Hey guys

I'm running into a small problem. I can't get the vertical pipe shortcut working. It open the "Load Context" window. That makes sense, the shortcut exists :

So the idea is to remove it. But what a surprise when i open Preferences >  Keymap, the shorcut is not defined :

So is there a "bug" ?

Hi there,

You are on Mac .. but use Default keymap? You should not be using it there...

Anyway: Default keymap has shortcuts defined here on Windows 10 ... but the "Mac OS X 10.5+" keymap (which should be used on Mac OS) indeed does not have any for Save and Load Context actions.

Try assigning your own shortcuts (even some complex -- if you do not plan to use them). Will it make any better?

I don't have the keymap "Mac OS X 10.5+".

I'm on Windows .. so cannot say if they have changed that for Mac version.. but before it definitely was "Mac OS X 10.5+" keymap.

  • What's your IDE version BTW?
  • How did you installed it? Is it Toolbox app or standalone installer?
  • Was it full install .. or in-place upgrade?

I'm thinking -- maybe worth uninstalling the app and re-installing again...

In any case: have you tried with assigning custom shortcuts?

>How assign custom shortcut ?

Right clicking on the action should do.

It might had been said before but ...

On my mac mini running mac os high sierra and using the interface, I have found the shortcut that was using the "|" character and changed it to another unused keystroke.

There is a tool on the top right corner of the keymap selection window that let you search for a shortcut by stroking the key combination.

Hope it helped someone.
