Hi,

The shortcut to jump to the editor (Ctrl-Shift-E) is not longer working. For some reason, when using this shortcut form the console, an ‘e’ character get printed on the console (and deleted when repeating the shorcut).

[SOLVED]

The issue is because on Ubuntu 20.04, Gnome sets the following shortcut: [Gnome] Disable emoji keyboard shortcut (Ctrl+Shift+E)

Disabling the OS’ emoji picker shortcut via the ibus-setup GUI solved the issue.

Thanks a lot!

I can’t reproduce this either. Do you have a special keyboard? I mean, one that requires an extra key to be pressed to get this shortcut?
