Many applications like Google Docs use Ctrl+Alt shortcuts like Ctrl+Alt+2 for heading 2, Ctrl+Alt+m for comments etc. However, in case of international keyboards' layouts, Ctrl+Alt is mapped to AltGr, so many of these shortcuts produce special characters instead, e.g. Ctrl+Alt+2 = @. Therefore these shortcuts can not be used.
Is there a way to disable this Ctrl+Alt = AltGr, such that AltGr+2 = @ but Ctrl+Alt+2 can be used as a shortcut?
There has been some earlier post with answers related to this problem:
- Why don't the Google Docs CTRL + ALT shortcuts work?
- Ctrl+Alt registering as AltGr for US International Alternate, any way to disable?
Both solutions are however related to unassign the special character completely. These solutions do not disable the Ctrl+Alt = AltGr binding. This means, that in order to use Ctrl+Alt+2 as a shortcut, I am not able to write @ at all, which is naturally not an option.
