Shortcut to rotate images not working

I'm quite confused about shortcuts on the german version of Lightroom. I have always been able to use use CMD + , or CMD + . on my Mac to rotate images. Both don't work anymore, while CMD + . does nothing CMD + , opens the Settings panel of Lightroom.

And even more confusing: when I check in the Menubar for the shortcuts it says CMD + < and CMD + # for rotating now - but only # works sometimes, < does never.

Anyone else having the same problems.

    Please see this bug report: Lightroom Classic CC: Keyboard shorcuts for rotate left and right changed incorrectly in German, Spanish, French, Italia… . If you click Me Too and Follow in the upper-right corner of the bug report, you'll make it a little more likely Adobe will prioritize a fix, and you'll be notified when the bug's status changes. There is a workaround in the bug report too.

    Hi Chrisdi,

    The issue for keyboard shortcuts not working correctly for German keyboard has been fixed in the latest update of Lightroom Classic CC 7.2.

    I would request you to please make sure that you have Lightroom 7.2 installed  and let us know if the latest update fixed the issue or does the issue persist.


    Regards

    It appears that LR 7.1 fixes this for German but not the other languages.  I think you're in German, so let us know if it's been fixed.

    Hi,

    I just gave it a try. Rotate right works again (CMD + .), the rotate left shortcut does not even show up in the menu anymore.
