The short cut for Debug Main Project is used to toggle the "Voice Over" on and off.
Reassigning to Ken and reducing priority. There are numerous shortcuts and even menu items that are different on Macintosh. These will all be dealt with in the online help and/or in a web document.
This is not a matter of the short cuts being different. This is a matter of the short cut does not work. As far as I know there is not shortcut that does work. It was working until just recently. It stopped working when the short cut was changed from F5 to Shift-F5. This is a regression.
If there is no working shortcut for Mac then this is a regression and it's not just a docs bug. Martin, do you know if there's a Mac shortcut for this?
Actually new new shortcut is Apple + F5 not shift F5. The Apple+F5 is the keystroke that does not work.
So the new shortcuts need to be reconsidered. Moving to UI component - this change was done in the new NetBeans shortcut profile.
Jano, is anybody working on this ? It's P2.
I talked to Ondrej about it some time ago; I believe he did some investigation, but I am not sure if we have any result. To put is simply, current shortcut is consumed by the Mac OS...
Yes, Mac assigns most of the F* shortcuts to system-wide actions, which is a big problem we can only avoid by using more complicated default shortcuts for our actions. For example for Debug Main Project we can use Ctrl-Cmd-F5 or Alt-Cmd-F5. Reassigning to Ondrej.
Is it possible to use the same shortcuts that are used by xcode when on the mac? That way the shortcuts are consistent.
That's also an option. It would probably mean to revamp the shortcuts completely on Mac.
I agree with Jano. Let's use Ctrl + Cmd + F5. There is no risc of clash with a shortcut translated from PC as the shortcut tranlated to Ctrl + Cmd + F5 on Mac would be Ctrl + Alt + F5 on PC, which can not be used due to KDE anyway.
So the suggestion is to use a special shortcut Ctrl + Cmd + F5 on Mac and the existing shortcut Ctrl + F5 on other platforms. I agree that it is probably the best solution. Problem is that it is not doable from debugging modules (or at least we do not know how to do it). This issue should be reassigned to someone who worked on shortcuts implementation (recent revision). Probably someone from NB Core?

VERIFIED.

There is a problem with this: on windows, where the shortcut is Ctrl + F5, the menu item shows the shortcut Ctrl + Meta + F5!

As indicated in #149422, the new shortcut (ctrl + cmd + F5) does not seem to work. Reopening this issue.
