Bug: [Read Aloud] keyboard shortcuts with alternative keyboard layouts
Hi,
Thanks for creating the read aloud feature, it's incredibly useful!
Just wanted to report a bug that I encountered while using it.
I use an alternative keyboard layout (specifically, the Dvorak-right-handed keyboard layout (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dvorak_keyboard_layout#One-handed_versions) for accessibility, available on all operating systems). I'm currently using MacOS 26.3.1 (a), and zotero version 9.0.3
Unfortunately, the keyboard shortcuts do not map correctly onto this layout. For eg. If I want to convert a highlight into the colour purple, I would need to press the 5 key (which corresponds to the Q key on the qwerty keyboard). This does not work, instead, I have to treat the keyboard like it is a qwerty keyboard to get the right shortcut (ie, press the corresponding key that is in the place of the qwerty-5 key).
Additionally, it appears that the numpad keys do not work when using an external keyboard for this.
Would be great if these could be fixed; thanks so much!
