Hi all,
I'm experiencing this weird issue and maybe some of you has already found out a solution. Shortcuts involving only ALT work fine (Alt + Down, Alt + Up, Alt + Ins), but when I try to insert a placeable (Ctrl + Alt + arrows) or look up in the TM (Ctrl + Alt + L), nothing happens. Any idea?
Many thanks,

Tommaso

I found the solution and I'm sharing it with the community: go to System_ Preferences_Keyboard Shortcuts and locate CTRL+ALT+Up/down/left/right which are assigned to "Switch to workspace". Select the four shortcuts and press Backspace to disable.

Tommaso
