Vim mode doesn't work on other keyboard layouts.

Open suhrobina opened this issue 4 years ago • 6 comments

I'm using two keyboard layouts - English and Russian. One of the most important feature for me in QON is the ability to use Vim mode. But I can't use it in proper way, because Vim keybindings not working on other keyboard layouts, only in English. I have to switch the keyboard layout to English to make Vim mode work. This also applies to QON keyboard Shortcuts.

@Waqar144, do you have any insight in this?

Hmm, I need to look at the code before saying anything.

Does it work with the German keyboard layout? If it does then it should also work with Russian in theory. But since I have never seen a Russian keyboard, can't really say for sure. Trying out the same in QtCreator would be interesting.

after a quick look, yep, other keyboard layouts may not work very well or may not work at all.

I like QON so much, but it's so painful taking notes in different languages. Sometimes I'm using three keyboard layouts.
