Show grid shortcut


Recommended Posts

Hi

AD 1 had "show grid" with "cmd + ' " (left side of keyboard)
AD 2 changed "show grid" to  "cmd + ¨" (right side of keyboard)

Tried changing "view grid" shortcut in AD2 settings back to "cmd + ' ".
Still only applies as default "cmd + ¨ "

Workflow is normally turn grid on off on off on off left hand, and mouse in right hand. Maybe your lead designer is left handed?😂Hope you can fix.

Hi Darner, I'm not seeing any difference for this shortcut between AD1 and 2 in English, French or German. Which language are you using Affinity in and with what keyboard language? For me, the shortcut has always been Cmd+right apostrophe on the right side of the keyboard.

Perhaps you had customized your shortcut in AD1? Try resetting your AD1 shortcuts back to Serif defaults and seeing what it was before you made changes. (Save your AD2 shortcuts first so that you can restore them back from Serif's defaults.)

Thanks for reply.

Language english on computer and in Affinity.
I now tried resetting, restarting, and ram reset, and setting Serif Defaults in both AD 1 and AD 2.

In AD2 - Shortcut default for "show grid" shows "cmd + ' ", but works only with "cmd + ¨ "
In AD1 - Shortcut default for "show grid" shows "cmd + ' ", which works fine.

Next re-install, or other suggestions?

FWIW, I'm on Windows. It is still <Ctrl + '> like in V1. Odd.

Swiss and Scandinavian keyboard layouts have a ¨ key.
The Swiss layout on Mac is a troublemaker since the early days…

This sounds like the bug picked up here when using a German-Swiss Keyboard layout...
