Shortcuts not working after updating to Android studio 4, in Mac?

Question

After updating to Android Studio 4 from AS 3.5, as a Mac user I found out none of the default shortcuts work properly, i.e cmd+shift+F does not open search everywhere dialog anymore?

Answer 1

To fix : in Android studio, from top menu tap on Android studio then Preferences... and type keymap then in the drop-down on the right screen select Mac and apply.

all sorted now, all the shortcuts are aligned with the Mac keyboard.

For a few seconds I was terrified because I couldn't find the macOS option. Then I realized I had to scroll... – Anarch

Answer 2

Try control+shift+F. I don't know why Android Studio makes this change, as that's such acommon used shortcut.

For those using VSCode keymaps, make sure you're using VSCode(macOS) keymaps in preferences > keymaps.
