Whenever I press the shortcut for spellchecking all text (Cmd-shift-/) the PowerMail menu highlights as if a menu command have been issued. Until recently the PGP 8.0 application also opened as if the shortcut had been reserved for it. I first suspected the services menu and a shortcut conflict, but PGP isn't available there when PowerMail is active and when I look in Finder all I have is "Cmd-shift with numbers 5 to 9. 7 is among those obviously and on the swedish keyboard layout "7" and "/" are on the same key with "/" being issued when you press the shift key. Interestingly when I try "Cmd-shift-/" in OS X keyboard shortcuts panel I see that it regards this as "Cmd-shift-7". Case closed? Well, problem is that also the commands (also under the spell checking submenu) "Cmd-:", "Cmd-;" and "Cmd-=" also need shift in order to be issued as they share key with ",", "." and "0" respectively. Now, the keyboard shortcuts panel regards "Cmd-:", "Cmd-;" and "Cmd-=" as "Cmd-.", "Cmd-," and "Cmd-0 respectively. Yet, they fire as expected in PowerMail, but not "Cmd-shift-/".
I have studied the keyboard aspect of OS X too little to find an obvious solution. Anyone have suggestions? PM 5.1b3 (note that I had the same problem in all PM 5) | OS X 10.3.5 | Powerbook G4/400 | 768 MB RAM | 30 GB HD
