I want to make CTRL+Shift+/ a multi line comment but the Preferences dialouge ignores what I type when using that character, why?

Could you please submit screenshot of the Settings window captured in the moment when you're trying to type that character?

and what happens if you just press Ctrl+Shift+/ while cursor is in that input?
If nothing, just enter this literally C t r l + S h i f t + / symbol by symbol.

As I said, nothing happens when I try to type in the input area the / symbol.

Actually nothing happnes unless I type alphanumeric chars, can't use ,.';[] etc...

If I type each char manually:

If you are a customer (sorry I can't recognize it from your forum account), please update to the latest build number (it's 4621 at the moment).

I bought this yesterday, order #205060. I'm on build 4621.

hmm, it works for me.
Please make sure keyboard is in US layout.
BTW, by default shortcut for multi-line comment is already Shift+Ctrl+/
Did you change it?

Hi

thanks for keeping on top of this thread.

I literally installed it and started coding. I used phpedit until yesterday and that was simply select line or multiple lines then press '/'. So when that didn't work (or Ctrl+/, or Ctrl+Shift+/) I went into settings and notcied that both were empty. So no I've not chaged anything no.

I've a GB/English layout, I'll try your suggestion.

hmm, thanks, seems it's what caused the problem so I'll pass it for further QAing.
