The same issue with this keyboard shortcut: "Cmd + Shift + ]" and "Cmd + Shift + [". By default this shortcut is used for jump to the next/previous open tab in various applications like Terminal.app, Safari and so on. This shortcut also works in Chrome but only when English keyboard layout is chosen. If any other other keyboard layout is chosen (Russian, Japanese) this shortcut is not working.

I recently fixed this issue for dvorak/dvorak-QWERTY: https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=811921 The fix generalizes to some, but not all non-english keyboards. I'm not sure there is a general solution. If there is a specific example: [please specify keyboard shortcut + keyboard] that works in Safari but not the latest Chrome, please post it here. |
