Windows Terminal version

1.11.3471.0

Windows build number

10.0.19043.0

Other Software

No response

Steps to reproduce

ctrl+shift+f doesn't have any response.

My settings.json:

"actions": [{ "command": "find", "keys": "ctrl+shift+f" }]

and only "find" uses ctrl+shift+f

(Even if this doesn't work, is there any other way to open search box?)

Expected Behavior

open a search dialog

Actual Behavior

nothing happened

Ctrl+Shift+P opens the "Command Palette", type find in it.

Could you share your whole settings.json file? That keybinding should work (and should work by default). I wonder if there's something else, some other application, which is hooking it globally.

@liubq7 commented on GitHub (Jan 4, 2022): > Could you share your whole [settings.json file](https://github.com/microsoft/terminal/wiki/Frequently-Asked-Questions-(FAQ)#where-can-i-find-the-settings-file)? That keybinding _should_ work (and should work by default). I wonder if there's something else, some other application, which is hooking it globally.

Hi @liubq7. Sorry for the long delay. Is this still happening on the latest version of Windows Terminal? I just tried it on my machine and it seems to work fine, but I still want to confirm. Thanks!

@liubq7 I experienced same thing and I was able to figure out the cause of my issue.
I have Microsoft Pinyin input method installed. When I was using windows terminal, and the language of input method is Chinese (Pinyin), pressing 'ctrl + shift + f ' would just switch the output of input method between Traditional Chinese and Simplified Chinese.
Only after I switch input method to English (United State) can I see search dialog using 'ctrl + shift + f '.

Update: Here is a thread on how you can change the shortcut for switching between Traditional and Simplified Chinese
