Shortcut to run cells on Mac is not working

[crherlihy]

for running a snipet of code, it seems the mac version is not working.
ctrl + enter deletes the code in mac. and thats what software suggests. Am I am missing something? or there is not hot key for mac.
Thanks,
C.

Please report at least your Spyder version. Besides, what does it mean what the software suggests?

Another question: have you tried to use Cmd+Enter instead of Ctrl+Enter?

[ccordoba12]

Thanks for reporting. I know what you mean now :-)

I'll fix it in 2.3.5

[crherlihy]

Great; thanks !

[ccordoba12]

No problem. Just to clarify, now Ctrl+Enter works to run cells, but also Cmd+Enter does it. I couldn't remove it, hope it's fine for you ;-)

Hi, Spyder is amazing tool!
I really thank you so much for this tool.
The hot key (shortcut) seems not working on 2.3.8 too, I tried to set and there's options like mod1, mod2, mod3, and key, but each there's only one key and I can not set as "cmd + enter"

How should I set? Tyvm

Unfortunately there's no way to change that shortcut to something else. This seems like a regression because I try to set it to be cmd+enter in 2.3.5 :-)

I'll see what's happening here ;-)

After updating spyder 3.3, cmd +enter stopped working for running the cell where cursor lies, though it works for the selection. Please help. Tried hard coding and what not but nothing works even resetting to defaults several times @ccordoba12

furthermore cmd+enter highlights the adjacent word

@Pseud0n1nja, unfortunately none of the core developers use macOS so we can't help you for now.

You could try to change the current shortcut in

Tools > Preferences > Keyboard shortcuts

It is not possible to change this specific shortcut here, on Mojave 10.14 with Spyder 3.2.8.
The current shortcut for executing selection / current line is F9 (difficult to reach since you have to do fn + F9 on a laptop) and it is not possible to replace it by Cmd+enter (it is simply not accepted by the shortcut manager).

Please open a new issue about this. Do not forget to include your OS, PyQt, Qt and Spyder version. Thank you.
