The Grave Accent on a swedish keyboard

Hi,

I ran into this interseting fucntionality which allows to overide connected clips. The manual says that the Grave Accent key command should do it - and if I switch to an american keyboard layout this is true. The Grave Accent key command on a swedish keyboard will not work that way. After reassigning this command to command S instead I finally got this to work - but now there is no way to switch the feature off. The commands will not turn the feature off - and return to normal.

what am I missing?

And here is the solution - the key command on an american keyboard is a direct key command ( next left to Z ) that does not require an cmd, or alt or similar. To get the grave accent key on a swedish keybord you need a " shift " key in the mix. The solution for was to assign the override connection directly to the swedish letter "å" ( with no other alt, shifts, cmd ) using the customize keyboard on the FCP X.
