Keyboard shortcuts don't work for intelliJ












4














I am using Ubuntu 16.04.4 LTS, Xenial with KDE. System is in German, I have Cherry Keyboard in German layout and I can't use IntelliJ keyboard shortcut.



For example, with "Comment with Block Comment" Ctrl + Shift + Slash, this combo doesn't work with German layout. I tried to change Keymap in IntelliJ as in screenshot, but nothing works



enter image description here



Any suggestions much appreciated .

I had the same issue (under Ubuntu 18.04 with Gnome) and resolved it by uninstalling the english keyboard layout. I went to settings -> region & languages . There I had both, the German Layout and the English Layout as input sources. I removed the English input source.

This can happen if you use Ctrl + Shift in OS as layout change keys combination, for example.



Try using Left Ctrl + Left Shift to separate OS and Intellij key listeners. In this case more general Ctrl + Shift + Slash will work for the right side keys combination in IDE: Right Ctrl + Right Shift.

    This seems to be an old issue in IntelliJ: Keyboard layout stop switching sometimes



    The current workaround is to change Input Sources order in Settings -> Region & Language and put your desired layout first. No IntelliJ restart required.
