Description

Issue type

UX/Interaction bug (incorrect behaviour)

Description with steps to reproduce

When entering figured bass on macOs, there doesn't seem to be any way to enter a literal space (e.g. to place a digit on the "second line"). Using the Ctrl + Space (or Cmd + Space) shortcut as per the manual does nothing at all, and it seems that the Preferences > Shortcuts menu doesn't have an entry to redefine this shortcut.

Unless I missed something, I feel like adding an entry to be able to define that shortcut would be a simple fix to the problem mentioned.
