Windows AltGr Problems

Some of TeXStudios shortcuts contain Ctrl + Alt
Ctrl + Alt + S for Save As

Problem

Windows treats AltGr like Ctrl + Alt

Because of this, you aren’t able to type AltGr + S for example.
(Corresponds to a certain character on Polish keyboards)

Instead this would trigger Save As.

As there are only a few such cases while also being limited to Windows,
we do not want to disregard Ctrl + Alt shortcuts completely.

Solution

TeXStudio changes / disables known problematic shortcuts
on startup, based on the current keyboard language.

If you experience problems with certain characters, please
report them so they can be added to the exclude list.

As a workaround you can change the corresponding shortcut in the options.
