  Hi. Today i tried to continue writing my post, and i accidentaly pressed some keys. I don’t know if that matters, but now I can’t write polish letters like “ł”, or “ą”. If i press right alt + l it’s “align left” option in visual editor. Previously, i pressed left alt + l and that was “italic” from the navigation bar. Is it wordpress problem, or I did something wrong? Sorry for my english, by the way.

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  @tetris014: are you still experiencing this issue? The WordPress shortcuts were reverted back, so there should not be any conflicts with the Alt key any more.

  Issue is still present, but only in case of alt+a. Ctrl+a works as well, but it’s impossible to write the ą letter.

  Oh, it also interferes with Ctrl+Alt+A

  This still occurs. Is there any workaround we can use? (Instead of copying and pasting ą letter? :)

  Hi there, I am sorry this is a pending request, it’s definitely on our radar. You could try a different browser (keyboard shortcuts are slightly different from browser to browser) and also try typing in Text editor (rather than Visual editor).
