In '@ - QWERTY ⌘' keyboard layouts, COMMAND-H does not hide application when a conversation is selected #6804
Comments
Hm... I don't think I can actually reproduce it, and I don't believe we have any shortcut that could interfere with it. Did it use to work for you before? |
This has never worked for us. However, after some more investigation, this is something of an edge case. Specific To Certain Language LayoutsWe use Dvorak - QWERTY ⌘ keyboard layout on our machines. This is a standard Dvorak layout for typing but when the Command key is pressed the keys revert to the physical keyboard layout.
Observed In Other LayoutsAs the - QWERTY ⌘ layout is also available for certain other international keyboards (1) we investigated a different language. In this case, Bulgarian - QWERTY ⌘. We can confirm that the behaviour is also present for this language layout. This would suggest there is an issue with all - QWERTY ⌘ layouts. WorkaroundThere is a workaround available in this issue, which would be to ensure that Signal is always started in a non-QWERTY ⌘ variant layout before switching back to the preferred working layout for the language. However this is not ideal. 1. At last count we saw 34 international language layouts with a -QWERTY ⌘ variant, including Arabic, Hindi, Russian and others. |
We can update the initial report for more specificity if preferred. |
Ah, got it. Thank you! |

Overall summary
Traditionally on Mac OS, using Command-H, the standard system-wide shortcut, will hide the current foreground app.
In Signal Desktop on Mac OS, when the app is in foreground and no conversation is selected, Command-H will perform as expected and hide the Signal app
However, upon selecting any individual chat by clicking in the middle pane, Command-H no longer responds and the app will not hide.
From this point forward, there is no way to deselect a chat, and so Command-H will never again function until the app is quit and restarted.
Steps to reproduce
Expected result
We would expect a system-wide shortcut to work and hide the app whether a chat were selected or not.
Actual result
The app ignores the Command-H shortcut and does not hide.
