Can't Delete anything because Backspace is a shortcut
Bug
Because of the Backspace shortcut binding to delete a request, I cant use it to delete any kinds of text.
This can be fixed with just a simple if check to see if a writable field is focused.

I just found this line in the code
https://github.com/mountain-loop/yaak/blob/7cba082eb0376f261e685b059808a1ae93f8dbfd/src-web/hooks/useHotKey.ts#L120
which should fix the problem, but it seems to be not working on any device I tested so far.
Ya, that code should be preventing this from happening. Can you print out the value of
currentKeysWithModifiersto see if it’s different from what the conditional is expecting? I’m guessing there is something different about your system that is triggering the bug, as I cannot reproduce it.Also, there is code to ensure the delete key only does something when the sidebar is focused: https://github.com/mountain-loop/yaak/blob/7cba082eb0376f261e685b059808a1ae93f8dbfd/src-web/components/sidebar/Sidebar.tsx#L135
This bug is also sometimes affecting me
Unfortunately this makes the app unusable for me. Is there any information you need to help you narrow down the issue?
