Almost all my shortcuts work (copy, cut, select all, etc.) but paste would delete a line instead. I use a custom keyboard layout (colemak-dh) configured with windows’ custom keyboard tool. It’s frustrating that I have to change to a generic keyboard layout to paste text when other shortcuts work just fine. I confirmed that the issue persists with Obsidian running in restricted mode and using the default theme.
Might be this:
You can try to delete the hotkey associated with the delete paragraph command.
My problem is a little different though. When I press all other shortcuts, they work as expected. However just for Ctrl + V, Obsidian mistaken it for Ctrl + D, (my keyboard layout replaces V in the US keyboard for D). However, pressing Ctrl + V (with the V that corresponds to my keyboard, which corresponds to B in the US keyboard), Ctrl + B is pressed. So I’m confused. Obsidian sometimes uses the key letter but sometimes uses the physical position of the key.
Anyways, deleting delete paragraph works, but I would like to have this command mapped to Ctrl + D as expected. Might be nice if your team can standardize using the physical location of the keys as reference for hotkeys, like most other applications do. Thanks
Unfortunately, the problem is that the web api that are available for capturing the keyboard are limited. After a lot of trial and error, we landed on the current implementation that upsets the least amount of people.
Hopefully we get something better in the future.
Totally understandable. I guess switching layouts will be the way forward for me then.
