Some shortcuts don't work anymore

Dirk-71 · Today, 03:56 AM

I have the latest version of Calibre for Mac installed (7.17).
There are some shortcuts that don't work anymore and I don't know why.

If I press the above mentioned shortcuts nothing happens. But this does not apply to all shortcuts. Some work like CMD+M to mark books.

Can you help?

Is it shortcuts that include shift in the modifiers that are not working?

No, CMD+SHIFT+R (restart in debug mode) does work.

DO you notice the global menubar in macOS flash when you press the shortcut?

No, I don't notice any flashing or flickering in the menubar when I press the shortcut.

Then I have no clue why they dont work. On my mac shift command m is assigned as a global shortcut by macos. I suggest you simply change them to something else via Preferences->Keyboard in calibre.

I just updated from 7.13 to 7.17. Command Shift F worked for me in 7.13, and still works in 7.17.

I forgot to test Command Shift M, before I upgraded, and it doesn't work in 7.17. But kovidgoyal explained why that is the case for MacOS.

Ok, thank you for your help. I will do so and change the settings.
