Windows Terminal version

Windows build number

Other Software

No response

Steps to reproduce

  • remove settings.json to have it regenerated by WT
  • open WT
  • try pressing ctrl+shift+m
  • nothing happens

You could also try adding this to your config (below config is abbreviated):

    "actions":
    [
        {
            "command": "toggleMarkMode",
            "id": "Terminal.ToggleMarkMode"
        }
    ],
    "keybindings": 
    [
        {
            "id": "Terminal.ToggleMarkMode",
            "keys": "ctrl+shift+m"
        }
    ],

Expected Behavior

I expect mark mode to be toggled by the default keyboard shortcut. It is bound by default in Settings -> Actions -> Toggle mark mode: ctrl+shift+m.

Oh and also, the docs aren't up to date from what I can see. I was unable to add "toggleMarkMode" to the actions array in settings.json like this:

    "actions":
    [
        {
            "command":
            {
                "action": "toggleMarkMode",
                "input": "",
                "keys": "ctrl+shift+m"
            }
        }
    ],

In fact, "toggleMarkMode" doesn't show up in vscode's autocomplete anymore, like the other settings do.

Actual Behavior

Nothing. I am able to toggle mark mode by opening the command palette and searching for "toggle mark mode" however.
