F11 not working for bookmarks, but other Function keys are working

Answered

I have one of the newer Macs that have the touchbar. Could that have something to do with this ? 

When I press F9, it does open the debug window.

 

But when I press F11, I don't get the bookmark happening. When I access the bookmark functionality via the Menu at the top, that works. 

Any ideas ?

Hi Jay,

Is Toggle Bookmark action assigned to F11 in your Keymap (Preferences | Keymap)?

 I checked the Keymap like you suggested. It was assigned there.

I then checked the 'Command F11' to see if at least the Bookmark with Mnemonic worked. It did.

Only F11 doesn't work.  

 

(btw, I thought it did after I tried Command+F11 and then only F11 by itself, but I was wrong, only Command + F11 works). But at least I have the other option I can use for now.

Check your Mac's keyboard shortcuts in System Preferences. Mine had F11 set to show the desktop. Turning that off enabled F11 to toggle bookmarks in IntelliJ.
