Is it just me, or is the keyboard not working properly now?

Where does the bug appear (feature/product)?

Cursor IDE

Describe the Bug

I use a Mac. Now the option key isn’t working (neither the right nor the left one), so I can’t type “@” in the chat to reference files, which is wasting a lot of my time…

Steps to Reproduce

On Mac, in a chat, just try entering an ‘@’, ‘#’ or ‘|’ by pressing Option + 3, 2, 1. :man_shrugging:t2:

Expected Behavior

same as when you press de @ button

Operating System

MacOS

Does this stop you from using Cursor

No - Cursor works, but with this issue

I also want to report this bug, I cannot toggle the terminal properly, for example my I have a full terminal height in my editor. But I cannot toggle the terminal again using the same shortcut (should be ctrl+`)

Does anyone have the same issue like this? :sad_but_relieved_face:

I also noticed that the code suggestions don’t have any colors. Currently, I just tested it on Dart

I have posted the issue here :folded_hands:

Same problem, cursor changes my keyboard from EN to ES all the time, exact same problem for using @ for context becomes a nuisance.
