On linux, the default format keybind conflicts with the edit_prediction::ToggleMenu keybind
Summary
Description
Because the edit_prediction::ToggleMenu and editor::Format share the same keybind (ctrl-shift-i), the edit_prediction::ToggleMenu never happens. Formatting works, though.
It would also be nice if zed had some kind of automatic way of marking keybinds as conflicting with other keybinds, so that these kinds of issues are easier to find.
Steps to reproduce:
- Start zed
- Use ctrl+shift+i to toggle the editor prediction menu
- It will format instead.
Expected Behavior: there should be no conflicts between keybinds Actual Behavior: the menu never opens because of the conflict
Fixed with this keymap
[
{
"context": "Workspace",
"bindings": {
// "shift shift": "file_finder::Toggle"
}
},
{
"context": "Editor",
"bindings": {
// "j k": ["workspace::SendKeystrokes", "escape"]
"ctrl-alt-l": "editor::Format",
"ctrl-shift-i": "edit_prediction::ToggleMenu"
}
}
]
In my config I changed editor::Format to ctrl+alt+l, because that's the same keybind that vscode uses by default on linux.

It's the same with ctrl-shift-e to toggle edit predictions for the current buffer; the default keymap contains a conflict so this doesn't work out of the box.
I've moved these to alternate keys in:

Not great defaults, but better than conflicting. Thanks for reporting.
