[Bug]: iPadOS Keyboard Shortcuts

See original GitHub issue

Is there an existing issue for this?

  • I have searched the existing issues

OS/Web Information

  • Web Browser: Safari / Chrome (all that ive tried)
  • Local OS: iPad OS 15.4.1
  • Remote OS: Ubuntu 21.04
  • Remote Architecture: Linux
  • code-server --version: v4.4.0

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Try F Keys (any keys in general)

Expected

F5 Should start program.

Actual

No result/Does Nothing

Logs

No response

Screenshot/Video

No response

Does this issue happen in VS Code?

  • I cannot reproduce this in VS Code.

Are you accessing code-server over HTTPS?

  • I am using HTTPS.

Notes

F5 Keys are kinda weird on iPadOS. I have to click Shift+CTRL+5 in order to work (at least that is what it is in terminus), I am not sure if this is app defined or in general

Not sure whether this is a bug or a limitation with Apple and i have to create keybindings. https://coder.com/docs/code-server/latest/ipad#workaround-for-issue-with-ctrlc-not-stopping-a-running-process-in-the-terminal

If this is the case ^ Possibly a them already being implimented?

@MitchellPT ON ipad, the difference is not only about F5, but also about window-key , ctrl-key and others. Could anyone can produce some software or otherthings to remap the keybroad of ipad to the keybroad of windows. @jsjoeio

It could just be that specific command? I think VS Code changes some of them depending on the platform. Ideally, you’d be able to see if this is reproducible on Codespaces. If yes, then file upstream. If not, then a code-server issue.

As for a workaround, you should be able to remap the keybinding under Keyboard Shortcuts.

Here are my keybindings in case it helps: https://github.com/jsjoeio/dotfiles-test/blob/main/code-server/keybindings.json

Here are some docs about advanced key bindings customization:
