Research direction

No files, tests, or entry points are named. Start by reproducing the Volume Up and Mute behavior in TiddlyDesktop, then trace the keyboard bindings that close the app or open Help. Done means those media keys no longer invoke UI actions, and closing with unsaved changes still receives normal protection.

Description

Somehow my Volume up key closes TiddlyDesktop and the Mute key opens the Help window. I am not using any special keyboard software and the keys work fine in other applications.

Edit:

  • its the Volume up, not down
  • the closing is not handled like Alt+F4 when there are unsaved changes, it kills TiddlyDesktop without question
