today I tried to sort out a long standing issue with my key-commands.
In specific the one “Respell Using Note Name Above” has stopped working quite a while ago - I guess since around Dorico version 5.
On my German keyboard layout, I have these two key-commands set up:
The second one just stopped working at some point, I have tried deleting and re-applying it, I don’t seem to get it working.
It might be the key-combination I am using, I don’t know: alt´
I am pretty confident I had this working in earlier years…
Any feedback very welcome.
Hi @k_b, that seems to be a dead key when using the German keyboard layout (which I also use). Here some more information, from Google (and the screenshot of the keyboard viewer with German language). My suggestion is to use a different key or a different modifier:
Somewhat related: those keys are dead also on a Swedish keyboard, and the only way I have found to use them has been to set them up for use via an external macro program. Maybe that could be an option if you want to use them.
Thanks Christian,
the only strange thing: when I first setup my keyboard commands at Dorico Version 1 (same keyboard), I had that combination somehow working - unless I am completely mistaken…
Do you have a personal suggestion for the respell commands on the German keyboard layout?
Referring to those two commands, I use command+ and command - (overwriting so some factory key commands that use those shortcuts, If I remember correctly):
