Keyboard shortcuts listing on MacBook Air - incoherence
Using Sigil 2.1.0 on my recently acquired MacBook.
Having been brought up on Windows and Linux, I'm slowly overcoming the cultural differences like, in Code View, finding the close tab red cross at the left hand edge of the tab instead of the right side. I thought today would be a good moment to make the same keyboard shortcuts on Mac as I'm using on Linux and Windows for the recently introduced 'focus' items.
I have learned that on a Mac, Cmd is the general equivalent to Ctrl on other platforms but I was surprised to find in the list of keyboard shortcuts, there are a load of Ctrl+Shift+'xyz' listed.
I was pleased to see that, and tried to introduce a Ctrl+Shift+B to focus on the Book Browser because the MacAir does have a Ctrl key. But Shift+Ctrl+ records as Meta+. The Mac Ctrl key has two functions, 'with shift' and 'without shift'.
So none of the Shift+Ctrl+xyz shortcuts listed under "preferences > keyboard shortcuts" in the Mac version of Sigil can possibly work.
Those same functions accessed from the menu bar drop-downs are correctly shown as Shift+Cmd+'xyz'.
