Description
Describe the bug
A common workflow for me in Vim is to combine actions with easy motion. For example:
d <leader> <leader> j to delete down some number of lines (jumping down with easy motion) or y <leader> <leader> e to yank some block of text to the right of my cursor (with the yank distance defined by easy motion). I also do with with c to change text.
To Reproduce
- Make sure easymotion is enabled
- Try
d <leader> <leader> kto delete upward some number of lines - Notice easymotion did not activate
Expected behavior
Environment (please complete the following information):
MacOS Mojave, most recent version of VS Code Insiders and VSCodeVim
- VSCode version: 1.42.1582596441-insiders
- OS: Mac OS Mojave 10.14.6

Research direction
Reproduce the issue with EasyMotion enabled by trying d <leader> <leader> k, then compare it with a direct EasyMotion invocation and the reported y and c workflows. Read the EasyMotion and action/keybinding handling areas identified while tracing that reproduction. Done means EasyMotion activates after an action and the delete, yank, and change examples behave as described.
