Cmd+<

I am on macOS. When want to use Cmd + < it opens the Obsidian settings key. Please explain how this works.

@DutchPete technically you're hitting the shortcut Cmd+, which is set to Open Settings. You have a couple options here

  1. Unbind the "Open Settings" hotkey in settings
  2. Rebind the "Hotkeys++: Toggle line to block quote" to something else. If you want the same key I suggest Cmd+Shift+, which would essentially mean the same thing because you access the < character with Shift+,

As a side note @argenos, I'm not sure it's actually possible to directly trigger Ctrl+< at all due to the aforementioned fact that it's really Shift+, which Obsidian seems to detect differently.

This seems to work on Linux alright. For now, the workaround is to remove the default hotkey and assign your own. This might be a good idea anyways, as I'll soon remove the default hotkeys to follow some best practices.

@jjspace: I opted for 2. and that works. Thanks a lot for you help.
