'Alt Gr' key plus 'c' key opens CH&S main window
« on: July 09, 2017, 08:43 AM »
The 'Alt Gr' key plus the 'c' key opens CH&S main window instead of producing  a cedilla (ç) as it should on an English UK extended keyboard.
This is very difficult when typing French words especially.
Is there any way I can stop this key combination working in CH&S so that it does not interfere with my keyboard's normal settings.
Many thanks
Michael

You can change the hotkey settings that trigger CHS on the Hotkeys tab.. See if changing that helps.

yeah, the AltGr key gets read as a Ctrl+Alt combination, which can be handy at times, or get in the way as here.
