Problem with Alt Key MacOS - deactivate keyboard navigation

Post by MatHir »

Hey

I'm new to jamovi and have the problem, that on my MacOS keyboard layout (swiss german) I have to use the Alt-Key to create certain characters, e.g. # with Alt+3. But pressing the Alt-Key brings enabled the keyboard navigation. So I have to leave jamovi, type the character in another app and copy&paste the character to jamovi.

Is there a way to disable the activation of the keyboard navigation in jamovi?

Thanks in advance for assistance.

Best,
Matthias
