Missing keyboard shortcut for Polish in SDL Trados Studio 2021

Question

I am a Polish translator and I need to use a key combination "Right Alt n" in order to write a diacritic sign (n with an accent). But this shortcut displays SDL Language Cloud Sign In window. I checked the keyboard shortcuts in Options but there was no such shortcut assigned to "SDL Language Cloud Sign In". To be sure, I assigned a different shortcut, but it didn't help. Now I have 2 working shortcuts for "SDL Language Cloud Sign In" and I still cannot write my diacritic (ń). Does anybody have a similar problem? I am using SDL Trados Studio 2021 in Windows 7. I have installed Studios 2017 and 2019 and they are working fine. Only the 2021 causes this problem.

Jerzy Czopik Jerzy Czopik said: Tab alone not, In fact you can do this with a small workaround... Grzegorz Stasiak If you customise as Jerzy suggested, Ctrl+Tab and then edit this file: c:\Users\[USERNAME]\AppData\Roaming\SDL\SDL Trados Studio\Studio16\UserSettings.xml Look for this: < SettingsGroup Id = " ShortcutsSettingsGroup " > < Setting Id = " ToggleSourceTargetAction " > < Value > Tab, Control < Setting Id = " SelectNextViewPartAction " /> And change it so only the Tab is there between the value element. < SettingsGroup Id = " ShortcutsSettingsGroup " > < Setting Id = " ToggleSourceTargetAction " > < Value > Tab < Setting Id = " SelectNextViewPartAction " /> Then save the file and restart Studio. Now it works as you wish. But you lose the ability to use the Tab key as a tab character.

Unfortunately not, I am using a different type of keyboard (not Polish programmer QWERTY, but Polish 214 QWERTZ). 
 But out of curiosity I tried with my installation of 2021. The shortcut in question (CTRL+ALT+N) is assigned to Projects -> New Cloud Project. 
 
 After having removed this shortcut and adding the Polish programmer keyboard I now can insert ń with the AltGr key and n (CTRL+ALT+n). So please check this.
