Steps to reproduce

  1. open the Sandbox vault via menu: “Help > Open Sandbox Vault”
  2. open the settings window
  3. execute the hotkey ⇧+⌘+W
  4. or execute a custom hotkey for the “Close window” command

Did you follow the troubleshooting guide? [Y/N]

Yes

Expected result

I expected the window to close using the default or custom hotkey for the “Close window” command.

Actual result

Window remains open. The only hotkey (that I tested) that closes the Settings window is ⌘+W which is the default for the “Close current tab” command.

In addition: currently ⌘+W closes the Settings window. If you add a custom hotkey to the “Close current tab” command, it does NOT work, while the default does.
