In Affinity Photo, macOS, german keyboard layout and display language, [ and ] are the default keys for brush size. They can be accessed via cmd + 5 resp. 6. However the shortcut is not working. If i change it to e.g. +, it is working.

If you want to use [ and ] on that keyboard, you probably need to specifically set the shortcuts yourself. The default shortcuts are not remapped automatically based on the kind of keyboard you have, as far as I know.

There is a misunderstanding about how shortcuts are actually implemented. There are Keycodes (the number generated by the switch under the key on the keyboard that you press) and then there is the ASCII value. A German keyboard will not generate the same Keycodes as the keyboard I have and use. Some Shortcuts may have to be remapped.

I have never mastered color management, period, so I cannot help with that.

I don't quite understand. So what you're saying is that actually the German shortcut list is not correct? Shouldn't Serif update it then as there are surely a lot of German speaking users that use the qwertz layout?
