Description
Describe the bug
In MS 3 I'm using the shortcut ">" as decrescendo hairpin. In MS 4 ">" can't be used as a shortcut, neither as a hairpin nor as an other shortcut.
To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:
- Go to settings/shortcuts
- Set > as shortcut for decrescendo hairpin
- Choose a note in a score and tip >
- Nothing happens
Expected behavior
">" should ad a decrescendo hairpin like the shortcut "<", which ads a crescendo hairpin to the score
Platform information
- OS: macOS 13.0.1

Research direction

Trace the shortcut handling from that entry point and verify that > triggers the assigned action; done means it works as a hairpin shortcut and as another configured shortcut.
