I have a few keys that can't be assigned. I'm on a MacBook pro 2018 15' with a french - france azerty keyboard. The keys not assignable are `, ^, ¨, the common factor is all those keys expect another key to put an accent on it so they are only generated after you type the next letter. for example â is written by hitting ^ first (which will wait) and then a so the os understands to put the accent on the a. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. customize a shortcut with an accent key working in 2 steps OBSERVED RESULT None is still the value affected EXPECTED RESULT something cool SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS macOS: big sur
I can confirm this is an issue on any deadkey.
I'm not sure it's actually possible to implement support for this, unless we go a whole lot lower down the stack. Qt doesn't send a keypress event until the dead key has been combined with another letter, as far as I can tell.
I think this is a bug the user can find a good quickaround by choosing another key, OR changing keyboard layouts for krita (I do this with some applications, as this is a common problem). Shall we close it?
I can reproduce this issue, but I am also going to set it to wishlist, as it would require a massive undertaking to implement this at all. For me, altgr+key does work, but '``' does not, and kde's shortcut handler can't even register the keystrokes reliably.
