3.6.2 Mac -- Regression - Cmd-I no longer toggles italics
OS: macOS 10.16, Arch.: x86_64, MuseScore version (64-bit): 3.6.2.548020600, revision: 3224f34
In text boxes and frames, Cmd-I no longer toggles italics. Cmd-B (bold) continues to work, as does the I (Italics) button. PLEEEZ fix...
This is a mighty big deal for one who writes "books" in MuseScore. Please somebody verify.

I don't have a Mac to test on, but for the record, it works as always on Linux, and I'm not aware of any changes in the code that could possibly have broken this. Is it possible some newly-installed utility on your computer is "stealing" this keystroke? Also check Edit / Preferences / Shortcuts and see if that is still listed as the shortcut. Does it work to reset it to the default? Does it work to define a new shortcut for that command?

Cmd-I works properly (for different functions) in other apps, including Outlook under Safari, where it in fact does have a habit of bugs that occasionally lose the binding.
In MuseScore, cmd-I is listed for both Italics and Toggle Insert Mode. But outside of text boxes, it seems to bring up the Instruments dialog instead. BTW, I'm on Big Sur 11.2.1.

Very strange. "I" by itself should be what brings up the instruments dialog, unless you customized that also. So, does it work if you remove the shortcut for "toggle insert mode"? Or if you customize the italics shortcut?

Huh? I did not customize any key bindings.

I get that you haven't yet, but I specifically asked you to try that in order to see if it worked around the issue for you.

I "Replaced" it in the Pref Dlg, and, indeed, now it works, including after app shutdown/restart and Cmd U works, too. Not quite "solved", but I gather no one has reproduced it.
Hmm, doesn't work on Windows either, not in Lyrics at least?
It does work though anywhere else

Oh, indeed, for lyrics specifically, Ctrl+I doesn't work on Linux either. And indeed, this isn't new at all - I can reproduce in all MuseScore 3 versions as well as MuseScore 2. Lyrics uses a whole different set of processing to handed hyphens and underscore etc, so not that surprising the Ctrl+I handling was never added there. Meanwhile, the toolbar works of course.
Cmd-U underline is broken, too.

On Windows only for Lyrics, there is it switches MuseScore to full screen
Whatever, those issues with lyrics are not new, same in 3.5.2 and probably earlier

In this version I use, all shortcuts in a text frame work normally but not as shortcuts for Lyrics input.
Ctrl + b, Ctrl + i, Ctrl + u

Yes, that lyrics issue is entirely separate, and that other plain Mac
