Description

In mac on a azerty french keyboard, forward slashes are typed with " Shift + : " as the forward slash is above the colon

In order to use the inline "Insert Anything" in Quarto, I would theoretically need to press " Command + Shift + : " but this doesn't give the appropriate Insert Anything shortcut

When starting a new line, the regular " Shift + : " will work as intended and offer the "Insert Anything" shortcut

I think the shortcut hasn't been mapped properly for the French azerty keyboards

IDE : RStudio 2024.04.2+764, R 4.4.0
MacBook Air M2 MacOS Sonoma 14.4.1

Thank you

Research direction

Reproduce the inline “Insert Anything” shortcut on the listed French AZERTY Mac setup in RStudio, comparing it with starting a new line. Trace the shortcut handling for that entry point; done means Command + Shift + : opens Insert Anything consistently in the inline context without changing the working shortcut.
