MacOS Monterey Keyboard Shortcuts Problem

Same issue here.

- MacOS native shortcuts always work well.

- But third part application with global hotkey work bad randomly

On my own point of view, it does not come from these apps because I gave same random behavior from at least 3 apps :

• iTerm2
• Alfred
• DeepL

I have a similar problem in Monterey one MBP M1 Max. I've tried to assign a shortcut of opt-F in Mail.app to "Clear Flag", of which there is no default key command. It seems to assign the key (new command shows up in the Mail mane), but instead of performing the command, it instead scrolls the viewer window in mail by about 20 emails, and that's it. It's acting like a page-down command instead of Clear Flag. It does this regardless if the currently selected email has a flag set or not. I can't find any conflicting command for opt-F and Keyboard Shortcuts does not indicate a conflict. Any ideas other than using mouse clicks like a barbarian? ;)

I can confirm that this is an issue with the input method. English input methods are completely fine but the Turkish Q one is broken. Change your input method to US, use "Shift + CMD + Ç" and you'll see that the shortcut indeed works. I guess not many people are affected by this and therefore it's not a known issue as it's still there on macOS Monterey 12.1.

you are right and I should add; when the icon size gets to maximum then it recognizes the shortcut correctly and hides/unhides files. just try it. It's weird.

There are certain keyboard layouts that use the same shortcut for hiding and increasing icon size.

You can try the toggle hiding in a different view, like list or column.
