Kbd Shortcuts impossible to set.

• Feb 10, 2021 - 10:33

It'd be useful for me to set a shortcut to add interval lower note to a note or a chord.
I mean one can already use Alt+3 to add an upper third interval, so I decided to set Alt+Shift+3 (or Alt+£ in my Ita Kbd) to add a third lower interval note,it works fine.
On the contrary I can see it is impossible to set Alt+Shift+7 and Alt+Shift+8 to add a 7th or octave lower interval note respectively, even if these last two shorcuts aren't already assigned to any operation.
I think it is quite a strange trouble, isn't it?

If you have a keybaord where Shift+7 is a key that the system (the Qt libraries we use for UI) expects to be a single key, then it won't be understood properly when combined with other keys. That is in fact the whole reason we disabled Alt+SHift+number some years ago, it just doesn't work on some keyboards.
