Obsidian Hotkey Assignment Misinterprets < Key on German Apple Keyboards

[boettges]

Oh, I did not find this thread searching the bug section prior to posting.
Thanks for pointing it out!

It’s exactly the same problem that tophee described in the other thread:

@tophee

But the problem is that although ⌘ + < does seem to work despite it being displayed as ⌘ + ,, the conflict with ⌘ + , is real, i.e. ⌘ + , will now trigger the same command that ⌘ + < was registered for. So this is not merely a matter of the hotkey being displayed wrongly, it also seems to be registered twice (which adds the confusion that the wrong display of the hotkey causes).

So, from what I can see, there are two issues here.

1. Users on non-US keyboards will sometimes see the wrong hotkey displayed. That one is known (I assume the explanation on the help page means something like: “we know this is not ideal, but haven’t managed to fix it yet”).
2. Users of non-US keyboards will register two hotkeys whenever the key in question differs between the US-keyboard layout and the keyboard layout used.
