Keyboard shortcuts only work when English input source is selected

Is something not working like it should? Let us know.

Sorry, me again :-)

It's slightly inconvenient that keyboard shortcuts do not work if I switch to Russian. Here is the video (also showing Figma as an example where shortcuts - "e", "v", etc continue to work even as i type "ы", "м"...)

Yep, that's a known issue and a current limitation of macOS. The shortcuts are very much language-depended and only work if the keyboard keys are mapped to the characters assigned to the shortcuts Pixelmator Pro uses. The last time I spoke with the devs about it, there didn't seem to be an easy way to work around this. If you're using Russian input regularly, you could try redefining some of your frequently used shortcuts in the macOS settings.

No big deal - thanks!
