In settings, "keyboard.dispatch" is not working now.

[ataihei]

Issue Type: Bug

In some cases certain keyboard shortcuts cannot be used in a Japanese environment, depending on the keyboard layout you are using.
I'm currently using a US Layout keyboard, and as a result, I'm not able to use the Ctrl + ` I can't use shortcuts.
When I use the keybindings settings dialog and type Ctrl + `, I get the message "ctrl +unknown" is displayed and not recognized as `.

I guess that's because it's a special key.
Alt + ` and Ctrl + ` are used to switch the input method in Japanese environment.

In the past, this was handled by changing "keyboard.dispatch": "code" to "keyboard. dispatch": "keyCode", but I just tried this setting and the setting itself is no longer existing now.

Could you please revive the settings or resolve these issues?

Thank you for your help.

Seems like that setting still exists to me, are you sure it is set correctly?

[ataihei]

In my environment, it doesn't appear to exist as shown in following gif.

Is there something wrong with my response?

[roblourens]

Apparently that setting is only valid for Linux and Mac. Can you check whether anything in this troubleshooting guide is relevant? https://github.com/microsoft/vscode/wiki/Keybinding-Issues

Thanks for the answer. That seems to be exactly this case.

Also, I noticed that the same problem was raised in #63659. I'm sorry for the duplication.
It seems that the OS is reserved for IME and cannot be used.

I'll vote issues that were presented in the suggestions. #1240
