Cmd + y to remove a line does not work

[justanirudh]

In IntelliJ, to remove a line, you can do Cmd + y. That does not seem to work in vscode after installation of the plugin

I've checked with PHPStorm and WebStorm and removing a line is done with CMD+Backspace not CMD + Y, and that functionality works.

IntelliJ (Ultimate) user here with MacOS key bindings. CMD-Y deletes a line in the default settings and I also miss it.

Is this on the older macOS keybindings that I believe are there for BC reasons? As CMD+Backspace is the default for all of the IDEs, at least for the US keyboard layout.

Yeah, I agree with @nesl247. On IntelliJ IDEA, on Mac cmd + y does nothing. Instead cmd + delete deletes a line at the cursor.

@nesl247 @totsteps , I don't think that's the case. My keyboard layout is US and both Intellij Classic and Ultimate use CMD+Y for delete. Even got a snapshot:

@gdagitrep those are the Classic keybindings. Those are not the default key bindings on any platform to my knowledge.

Anyone come across an extension that ports Classic keybindings to VS Code ??
