The problem goes away after a while on its own.įor the technically-minded Windows users among you: I made an AHK script that goes around the Ctrl+At+C (and Ctrl+Shift+C) problems. Killing other apps does not help, so don’t bother recommending it unless you know some specific hidden system process that causes this.

All the more strange, as adding the Shift button as a fourth key works again:Īll other applications continue handling Ctrl+Alt+ keystrokes (e.g. Strangely enough, both modifier keys (Ctrl and Alt) do work separately, even the two together, just not together with a third button. When Figma gets into this “bad mode”, Ctrl+Alt shortcuts act as if the modifier keys haven’t been pressed at all. Killing apps or reboot does not help either, so please don’t suggest those as a resolution.

There is no pattern for when this happens or what triggers this and when it will return to normal. I need to switch to an English layout where they do work - as suggested by Yuval.Īfter a while the issue goes away and shortcuts start working again. From time to time Ctrl+Alt+ keyboard shortcuts stop working on a Hungarian keyboard layout (Windows). So for me it is not persistent, just happens occasionally. I will add some more details here, maybe it helps uncover the issue.

Unfortunately that doesn’t solve the issue if you want to use any other layout (e.g. Now put your cursor in the "Press new shortcut key" and Press Ctrl+C, a button on the bottom named Assign will light up, and you click on it.ĭo the same for all the shortcuts you like, such as EditPaste, EditUndo, EditRedo, EditCut, SelectAll etc, then save.It is a good temporary solution, which I am forced to use whenever this happens. Look at the "Current Keys" Box you will see "Ctrl+Insert" which is the NEW mapping Now, from the right box select the following Command: EditCopy On the Categories box, scroll until you find "All Commands" and select it. On the bottom there is a label "Keyboard Shortcuts" and a button "Customize." - click it To "restore" word to the way you remember, you need to go to, File->Options->Customize Ribbon It is not clear why this happens, couldn't find any Microsoft blog post or something that confirms this, BUT, when looking through the Word 2010 settings I have found that there was a complete revamp of the shortcuts.
