Descrizione

Describe the bug

To Reproduce

  1. Prerequisites :
    • Have an Apple laptop with an internal Apple French keyboard ;
    • Have an external non-Apple French AZERTY keyboard ;
    • Have FRPC set as your current keyboard layout, for use with the external keyboard ;
  2. Open CopyQ ;
  3. Go to File -> Preferences -> Shortcuts -> Global ;
  4. Click on + next to Show/hide main window ;
  5. Press the top-left key of the external keyboard (²) ;
  6. Submit, close settings and focus another app ;
  7. Press ² again and expect CopyQ to appear ;
  8. See CopyQ appear ;
  9. Set FR as your keyboard layout, for use with the internal keyboard ;
  10. Press the top-left key of the internal keyboard (#) and expect CopyQ not to appear ;
  11. See CopyQ appear.

The same issue occurs when doing the opposite : setting # as shortcut using the internal keyboard then pressing ² using the external keyboard (CopyQ appears when it should not).

Expected behavior CopyQ shouldn't appear in this situation.

Additional context I'm so sorry for bringing you an Apple issue. I hate them and I wish I wasn't forced to use it because of work. On the bright side, apps like CopyQ, and the ton of others I need to do stuff that is basic on Linux, make it more bearable.

Thank you.

Investiga come CopyQ gestisce attualmente le scorciatoie da tastiera e i cambi di layout su macOS. Il problema probabilmente deriva dall'uso di codici tasto invece che di identificatori indipendenti dal layout. Esamina le API macOS come TISCopyCurrentKeyboardInputSource o Carbon Event Manager per ottenere il layout corrente e differenziare FR da FRPC. Controlla la logica di registrazione delle scorciatoie nella gestione delle scorciatoie globali.
