Quick-Keys with german keyboard layout on MacOS

Hey Guys,


the Quick-Keys cannot be configured properly on my Mac with a german keyboard layout. I tried to combine it with Blender which lives from its keyboard shortcuts to handle a model efficiently. My test example is the keystroke Option-z to toggle the xray-mode of an object. 


No matter what or how I try to configure the keys of the Quick-Key it always sends the wrong keystrokes to the application. Obviously the driver internally only knows a standard US-keyboard no matter what layout you select in the setup after the installation. Playing around with keyboard settings on the OS-level as some Xencelabs solutions suggest is quite out of scope. This would make it even harder to work with an application like Blender.


I don't know if this is an overall issue across all platforms. I'm only working on a Mac so I don't care if this works on Windows or not. Mac is a supported platform but this functionality is definitely not properly implemented and the Quick-Keys tool is unusable and simply for the trash.


I already have a support case running for this topic but I wanted to ask the community if someone else may have already come up with a solution.

This is an interesting question. I'll need to conduct some research on this and get back to you.
