IdeaVim OS X Key Repeat not working

I'm using Toolbox and I'd like to disable character accents popup only in WebStorm (stable and EAP) and other JetBrains apps.

I tried the following but it's not working for me:


$ defaults write com.jetbrains.WebStorm ApplePressAndHoldEnabled -bool false
$ defaults write com.jetbrains.WebStorm-EAP ApplePressAndHoldEnabled -bool false

Any hints about the correct command for each app?

I am indeed asked by WebStorm if I want to do so upon install, but if I accept it does so globally and I find it limiting. I think there should be an option to limit the feature just to the app itself.

Hello,

We have related request on YouTrack: https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/VIM-893. By the way, "defaults write com.jetbrains.webstorm ApplePressAndHoldEnabled -bool false" should also work.

Hi Yaroslav,

Unfortunately, that doesn't seem to be working. Searching for the JetBrains domains on my computer returns the following list. I tried them all but with no success. Any other suggestion, please?

com.jetbrains.WebStorm
com.jetbrains.WebStorm-EAP
com.jetbrains.apps.activator
com.jetbrains.apps.activator.cef
com.jetbrains.intellij
com.jetbrains.intellij-EAP
com.jetbrains.pycharm
com.jetbrains.pycharm-EAP

Fixed by resetting global defaults first:

$ defaults delete -g ApplePressAndHoldEnabled # If necessary, reset global default
$ defaults write com.jetbrains.webstorm ApplePressAndHoldEnabled -bool false # For Webstorm/EAP
