abra100pro Posted June 29, 2023 Posted June 29, 2023 I wanted ^-CMD-D as shortcut for Data Merge Manager but AP does not accept this shortcut. Have others ending with F or R that work fine. Latest macOS, latest AP

Staff NathanC Posted June 29, 2023 Staff Posted June 29, 2023 @walt.farrell for me it doesn't make any sound and just fails to recognise it as a shortcut input in both V1 and V2, perhaps there is a legitimate reason for this but the shortcut doesn't appear to do anything in MacOS Ventura or In-app. I'll log it with the developers for further investigation. walt.farrell 1
abra100pro Posted June 29, 2023 Author Posted June 29, 2023 @walt.farrell@NathanC same here – no sound, nothing. Tried it in Photoshop with the same result – so @NathanC, you're right, I guess, must be something macOS based. Sorry, no bug @ Affinity.
v_kyr Posted June 29, 2023 Posted June 29, 2023 Since Mac OS X Lion a new system feature where introduced in many applications, if you press (Command-Control-D) a popup will be shown with the definition for the word under the mouse cursor. A side effect of this is that you can no longer use the same shortcut to access functionality in other applications (for example, some Webbrowsers, Emacs ... etc.). In order to disable the default system Cmd-Ctrl-D binding one can tryout the following via a defaults setup ... Quote defaults write com.apple.symbolichotkeys AppleSymbolicHotKeys -dict-add 70 '<dict><key>enabled</key><false/></dict>' ... OR instead tryout to disable it via the systems keyboard preferences ... Quote Through System Preferences, one can change and disable keyboard shortcuts. Go to System Prefs -> Keyboard -> and hit the tab Keyboard Shortcuts. Click the Services entry, and scroll down to the Searching set of shortcuts. Uncheck the lookup in dictionary to disable it, or double click the space to the right to change the shortcut. Under macOS Sierra 10.12.5 , it's under --> System Preferences --> Keyboard > Shortcuts (tab) > Services ( on left pan) > Searching ( on right pan) and then Uncheck "Lookup in Dictionary" checkbox MikeTO, abra100pro and NathanC 2 1 ☛ Affinity Designer 1.10.8 ◆ Affinity Photo 1.10.8 ◆ Affinity Publisher 1.10.8 ◆ OSX El Capitan ☛ Affinity V2.3 apps ◆ MacOS Sonoma 14.2 ◆ iPad OS 17.2
