latest eclipse luna square brackets are not working in editors / german keyboard


In the latest version of eclipse luna it is not possible to use square brackets in any editor. I have a german keyboard and I don't want to switch to english layout. Under preferences -> general -> keys it is not possible to find the key combination altgr-8 or altgr-9. I uninstalled emmet and freemarker, but this did not solve the problem.

Is there someone who has an idea how to fix this problem?


Solution

  • Ok, i solved the problem.

    I had to remove the standard hotkeys for 'previous edit point' and 'next edit point'.

    This is done under window - preferences - keys and clicking unbind command

    enter image description here

    Then the brackets were no longer blocked.
