Moving cursor in text with keyboard differs to normal OSX behavior

[Konspaul]

Hi!

Moving cursor in Affinity apps in text with keyboard differs to normal OSX behavior. In normal OSX text edit program, web browser etc. pressing alt + arrows makes normally the cursor jump over a word. Pressing the cmd + arrows makes the cursor jump to the end or beginning of the line.

Affinity has mapped this differently. Pressing alt + arrow is text spacing tightening/loosing, and cmd + arrow makes the cursor jump over words.

How will I set the normal OSX behavior in all Affinity programs?

Open the application Preferences, then look in the Keyboard Shortcuts section. You should see an option to use the standard MacOS shortcuts.

I have never tried it but I think this is the button that applies that option.
