Ubuntu : Unable to use ALT+n shortcut

I have two laptops, one with Lubuntu (LXDE) and the other only Ubuntu (with Gnome), both in 18.* version.

I cannot make those shortcuts works, which annoys me because none of the navigation keys are working: ALT+1, ALT+9 etc.

Can I have some help?

Thnak you!

Please check if alt+n is detected if you open File > Settings > Keymap > Find action by a hotkey button & press alt+n

Hello, yes it is.

@...

Right now you just showing actions and assigned shortcuts and not what Dmitry has asked for.

Use "Find action by a hotkey" button (it's on top right on your screenshot, next to the search field), it will show a popup window -- press "Alt+1"/whatever shortcut there -- does it recognize it? Show some video/screenshot that shows that (IDE should filter all actions and how only those that match that shortcut).

Here is my IDE and how it looks there once I do the above (I'm on Windows; just showing this so you better understand what me & Dmitry said):

Andriy Bazanov I see the point, here is what it returns :

  • Alt+Pavé numérique-1 (with numpad)
  • Alt+Esperluette (with ALT+1)

Maybe the keyboard mappig is not good?

Dmitry Tronin I did look, but when I re-add some mof it, it maps  Alt+Esperluette instead of ALT-1.

Hello,

April 2021, this situation keeps on going.

With a french AZERTY Keyboad, on Ubuntu 20.04 and 20.10, key shortcuts for ALT+N must be redefined (or second shortcuts must be added). And that looks like this :

MT, could you please check if toggling Settings | Keymap | Use national keyboard layouts makes any difference?

Hi Eugene Morozov,

Toggling this checkbox does not make any difference. It was the first thing I tried (on previous versions), before deciding to add new shortcuts.

I just did a new try (on the updated version 2021.1.1) and the checkbox has always no effect.

MT, we had a similar report on our tracker, but there were no other reports to back it up. Now that you are experiencing the same issue, I've moved it to IDEA. Please vote: https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/IDEA-268413
