Support Bug Reports
1

Problem description:
Shortcut to toggle comment on/off is on a mac CMD + / This works on a US keyboard but not on a non-US keyboard like Swiss German. Here / ist Shift + 7, so the shortcut would be obviously CMD + shift + 7

Expected behavior:
Toggle comment

Actual behavior:
Nothing

Steps to reproduce:
Just try it out with a different keyboard layout on your computer. Switching in the OS to a US keyboard works.

Bug appears at this link:

Browser/OS/Device:
Brave/Safari on MacOS

I couldn’t quite understand what keys you were trying to press. Taking a look at the layout of a german keyboard, you could theoretically use the Command key on a mac the same way you would with a US keyboard.

Would you mind sending me a photo of your keyboard and what keys you are pressing to run the commenting keyboard shortcut?

This works on other Editors like Sublime or VS Code, where Command + / is used to comment.

Thanks for the report, I’ve passed this along to the engineering team.

I’m sorry, I don’t believe we’ve gotten much progress on this. The engineering team is very busy right now, so unfortunately I can’t tell you when this will get fixed.
