Description Jure Repinc 2024-10-12 09:25:08 UTC 
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Use a keyboard layout that is not English (in my case I use Slovenian keyboard layout)
2. Try to set a new keyboard shortcut that includes special locale keys (e.g. Ctrl+Ž)

OBSERVED RESULT
The actual keyboard shortcut key combination shown to be saved is that of English layout (in my case Ctrl+\)

EXPECTED RESULT
The shown keyboard shortcuts key combination should show and use non-English keyboard locale key character

Hi, thank you for your bug report. Currently kde's shortcut processing relies on Qt's shortcut processing, and I believe the described behavior is how Qt is currently implementing shortcuts across non-latin layouts.
