Final Cut wrong keyboard layout

Hi, when I open the Command editor in Final Cut Pro the keyboard overlay is QWERTZ. How do I change this to reflect the actual keyboard? The keyboard is International English and British is selected in Keyboard Preferences.

I would start by deleting preferences - always something to try when the application behaves unexpectedly.

To delete preferences, hold down command and option while starting FCP X and click Delete Preferences.

The application will start in a default state, and open an "Untitled" library. Reopen the library you were working on, set the preferences the way you like them, and try again.

If the issue persists, tell us more about your system. Run Etrecheck and post its report here using the "additional text" button.
