Shortcut for rotating pictures on Mac using German keyboard
« on: September 15, 2023, 01:48:25 AM »
Hi,

I'm using Photo Mechanic Plus Version 6.0, build 6784 (409cf99) on an Apple M2 Max with macOS Ventura 13.5.2. with German keyboard layout and here is my question:

The keyboard shortcut for rotating a picture in a contact sheet would be e.g. [ or ]. For typing in these brackets on a German keyboard you have to press alt+5 or alt+6. When I do press alt+5 for rotating the preview of the picture I get a color class set to this picture (as my single key shortcut in the "accessibility" preference is set to color class and not rating).

To get a color class by pressing cmd+5 or cmd+6 would be as expected, but getting the rating with alt+5 and alt+6 is strange, especially, when on top, the preview picture doesn't rotate.

May you please fix this or give me an advice how I may use shortcuts for rotating pictures.

Thanks
