mazaltov <[email protected]> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Keywords| |accessibility --- Comment #7 from mazaltov <[email protected]> --- I confirm, it's more specific: *Some* keys do not work under different keyboard layout(s). Examples: the key W is mapped in my keyboard layout to apostroph (') Pressing Ctrl+W (english keyb) closes current document/workbook) Pressing Ctrl+' (hebrew keyb) does nothing. They are the same key, physically. An example for expected behavior: Pressing Ctrl+C (english keyb) AND pressing Ctrl+ב (hebrew keyb) both do "COPY TO CLIPBOARD" (also the same physical key). This is because Shortcuts are used to *simplify* and *standardize* user's work. The correct and expected behavior is using the same physical key for the same action: Shortcut keys use "muscle memory", and accessibility reasons (ctrl+C/ב) is just easy to press even with one hand. Interestingly, When you use Tools > Customize > Keyboard, to map an action to "Ctrl+," (control+comma key), In my computer (Hebrew/English layouts), BOTH Ctrl+, AND ctrl+" ( but same character in different layouts) will invoke the same action in both cases, under 2 different physical keys. The keys that I mapped to work "wrong" are all the keys which in my non-latin keyboard layout, are not letters; i.e. most punctuations: `/qw[];'\,.<>:";{} -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
