Hotkeys do not work in languages other than English

[kozeev]

Some hotkeys do not work in languages other than English, for example shift+x shift+b on canvas.
cmd+f doesn’t work in the component search popup. However, cmd+f works on canvas and creates a frame correctly.

The problem is both in the latest stable version and in the beta version.

macOS Sequoia 15.5

Yes, sorry, we rely on macOS to localize shortcuts for different layouts, and unfortunately macOS doesn’t localize shortcuts like these which are purely Shift-based. There’s two workarounds:

1. Switch to a Latin keyboard layout — I imagine you’re using a Cyrillic layout?
2. Set a custom shortcut for the Toggle Fill, Toggle Border, and Swap Fills and Borders actions in your System Settings, which will override the default ones.

This shouldn’t be a macOS limitation, we’ll look into it.

Thanks for the quick reply.
Yes, Cyrillic. I didn’t know about shift that they don’t localize it, at least it became clear. The idea with changing the hotkey is interesting
