Probable duplicate of #2235.

Same issue.

Thanks for the suggestion to follow #2235
I tried with version v0.15.1 and the problem is solved, braces are working with this old version.
I stay with the old version, waiting the issue to be fixed.

Hi,
Same issue here with a French Keyboard and MarkText 0.16.2
following this page : https://github.com/marktext/marktext/blob/develop/docs/KEYBINDINGS.md

I fixed the issue with this keybindings.json file in ~/Library/Application Support/marktext

{
  "tabs.switch-to-first": "Ctrl+1",
  "tabs.switch-to-second":"Ctrl+2",
  "tabs.switch-to-third": "Ctrl+3",
  "tabs.switch-to-fourth": "Ctrl+4",
  "tabs.switch-to-fifth": "Ctrl+5",
  "tabs.switch-to-sixth": "Ctrl+6",
  "tabs.switch-to-seventh": "Ctrl+7",
  "tabs.switch-to-eighth": "Ctrl+8",
  "tabs.switch-to-ninth": "Ctrl+9",
  "tabs.switch-to-tenth": "Ctrl+0"
}

I previously change Alt in Alt+Shift but by doing this I get back { but I lose [ ...

On the current version (just downloaded today) this problem applies to all characters generated by the option key in a Mac keyboard combined with one of the number keys. However option+shift+number works correctly. This is on a UK English keyboard layout, where characters such as the # symbol (option-3) and € (option-2) cannot be entered either using the keyboard or using the keyboard viewer menubar app.

This is a serious issue, given the use of # in Markdown.

@DrDavidGee Do you downloaded the package from releases or build yourself?

[DrDavidGee]

I downloaded the .dmg from releases. As I said, the problem applies to all characters that would be generated by option + a number key. It doesn't affect the non number keys on the same row; option + hyphen produces the em-dash “–“ it should.

It's a known issue with our latest stable version and already fixed in #2235. We'll release a fixed version soon.
