P: Flag & Color Label Shortcut Issues (Specific Languages AZERTY&QWERTZ)

I encounter an issue with the latest update (V11) on shortcuts to assign a color label (6,7,8,9).
Those shortcuts won't anymore assign a color label, it will now only remove the color label. 
The shortcut "Assign a color label and go to next photo" (Shift+6 to 9) still work well as previously.
Please fix this adobe, my culling speed depend on it. 
Thanks in advance,

Now I have found another bug. When I use number on numeric keypad with Shift, which should work as Advance, it sets or remove label for two pictures at once, which is also not correct behaviour.

Thanks for tip about plugin, but I'm not going to spend another money to repair Adobe's. And while there are similar non-english keyboard shortcuts bugs in other apps (PS, INDD) for more then four years, I'm very sceptical to have them fixed.

Toujours le même bug depuis tout ce temps c'est incroyable (et insupportable) !!! incapable de gérer correctement le pad numérique sur un clavier AZERTY quand même !!! c'est parce que cela ne concerne que très peu d'utilsateurs au final ? (français avec un clavier avec pad numérique)

My solution, Feb 2022, also using an AZERTY Keybord, works perfectly :

"Do not reset your Preference. It just a waste of time or worse you’ll end up messing your LR. "… Of course I should have written "Copy - delete the .plist" since in this case it is easy to restore the previous settings, wich I had done.

For the rest… obviously it should be related as a mapping problem with the numeric keyboard on Apples (and apparently other brands) extended keyboard with MacOS 12.2 since previously all worked flawlessly.

My own workaround : even if I use a Wacom tablet, I also use a Stream Deck 15 LCD input keys accessory… I assigned the shortucts prefixed with Maj - Uppercase and the workaround is quite satisfactory, even if a little less handy than the use of numeric extended keyboard.

And… yes, Adobe should look seriously into this misbehavior since it clearly is a bug!

Best regards from France,

And… Abobe does'nt look for bug corrections or real improvements… only for our wallet !

Hi Rikk, unfortunately it doesn't seem it was fixed in October 2024 update. Could you push it ?

"This solution with the Shift key is good for some LR users, but I don't know if for most. LR is mainly for bulk photo processing, this causes slowdown. A few photos can help."

 

To avoid use of the Shift key, see the more involved workaround using the Any Shortcut plugin that I linked to previously:

Clearly, it would be better if Adobe fixed the bug.

Toto riešenie s klávesou Shift je pre niektorých užívateľov LR dobré, no neviem či pre väčšinu. LR je hlavne na hromadné spracovanie fotografií, toto spôsobuje spomalovanie. Prip pár fotkách to môže pomôcť.

Zdravím, táto chyba je aktívna, vymeniel som aj Mac, LR mám stále aktuálny, chyba pretrváva, používam Slovenskú klávesnicu, keď prepnem na anglickú klávesnicu všetko ide OK. Prosím otestujte to aj na inej ako anglickej či americkej klávesnici
