This was fixed in LR 7.5 but broke again in LR 8.0! Please add your constructive opinion to the bug report: Lightroom: German keyboard shortcut for Group Into Stack broken | Photoshop Family Customer Community . Be sure to click Me Too and Follow in the upper-right corner, which will make it a little more likely Adobe will prioritize a fix and notify you when the bug's status changes.  See the bug report for a workaround.

It's yet another keyboard-shortcut bug: Lightroom: German keyboard shortcut for Group Into Stack broken | Photoshop Family Customer Community . See that post for a workaround. Based on years of such careless mistakes, it sure looks like Adobe has absolutely no quality processes around keyboard shortcuts.

Also, be sure to add your constructive opinion to that bug report, and click Me Too and Follow in the upper-right corner of its page. That will make it more likely Adobe will prioritize a fix, and you'll be notified when the bug's status changes.  Recently, it's taken Adobe six months or more to fix such mistakes in keyboard shortcuts.

I'm sure someone with that operating system version will try it on their computer and let us know if the problem is reproducible or not.

It is also possible that some operating system shortcut was assigned to that keystroke (that you the user set up) and so it overrides the Lightroom meaning of the keystroke. Please check for that.


No, there isn't any operating system shortcuts assigned. It worked in 7.3.

A friend of mine which is using a PC told me just, that he got the same problem. So it seems to be an across system fault.
