Keyboard shortcuts stop working consistently

• Apr 7, 2022 - 17:54

I am running MuseScore 3.6.2 on a MacBook Pro running Catalina. Every time I use the app, within 5 or so minutes, the keyboard shortcuts stop working, and I have to close it and reopen it. I have been unable to reproduce it under any specific conditions, and it appears to be happening somewhat randomly. I am not in edit mode, and I have read all of the responses to this question (https://musescore.org/en/node/283446) and this question (https://musescore.org/en/node/297775). It appears this has been happening to people for a long time, especially Mac users. Is there any way to fix this? Are there plans to fix it in future updates? It's incredibly annoying.

Do you specifically mean Ctrl+Delete / Cmd+Delete? That's the only case I know of that commonly stops (eg, more than just 2 or 3 reports - more like 20 or 30), and indeed, no one has yet managed to show how to reproduce the problem. There were one of two other reports from previous versions a few years ago of other keys stopping (e.g., those couple of threads) but literally, only that small handful, and also, no one managed to show how to reproduce the problem. If it's happening that way to you, perhaps you will be able to discover how to reproduce it, and then it can be addressed.
