Shortcut key combination with shift+option key is not working.

[shekhardtu]

Hi,
I am using VS code Version 1.10.2 (1.10.2). Whenever I am trying to use shortcut key in combination with shift+option+F key that's not working instead leaving a special character " ̰ " on screen.

• VSCode Version: 1.10.2 (1.10.2)
• OS Version: macOS Sierra v10.12.4 (16E195)

Steps to Reproduce:

1. Open any JS file.
2. Try to format is using "option+shift+F"

@harishekhar This milestone we have changed how keybinding dispatching works on OSX to use e.code (See #17521).

Can you please try in the Insiders Build that contains all these changes?

Closing after a number of days without a response.

Tried the Insiders build today. I'm still seeing this issue.

macOS 10.12.4

@skotturi What keyboard layout do you use? What type of physical keyboard do you use: ANSI, ISO or JIS?

@alexandrudima I wasn't sure so I went into Sys Pref > Keyboard > Input Sources. My keyboard was set to "ABC Extended". I changed this to "ABC" and the issue is gone. No idea how that changed, vscode seemed to be the only place where the keybinding difference showed up.

I have just investigated this issue using the ABC - Extended keyboard layout.

When pressing shift+option+F , we receive a compositionstart event and enter composition mode. This is similar e.g. to how composition acts when inputting CJK languages. Our handling of this case is IMHO correct.
