The editor key bindings for macOS (Command-A, C, X, V) aren’t working. To copy text, I have to use Ctrl-C; same for the rest. I have confirmed that the key bindings are properly setup in the preferences.

I’m using version 18.1, build 20261101.

We do tested the copy & paste on Mac with Cmd+C/V and confirm it works. Would you please tell us more details about your Mac OS so that we can help to diagnose the issue? I’m look forward to hearing from you.
