Spyder: Disabled shortcut still set

[dbau]

Description

What steps will reproduce the problem?

Hi,

I have disabled the shortcut "Alt+Shift+Enter" to avoid to run the file accidenty.
However, even if this shortcut has been disabled in the shortcut panel, whenever I accidently type "Alt+Shift+Enter", the file is executed.

Have you checked in your spyder.ini file that editor/debug cell = Alt+Shift+Return is replaced with editor/debug cell = (that is empty space and line break after the equal sign)?

I recently experienced a problem with shortcuts that was caused by attempting to assign a key binding in Spyder that was already assigned by MacOS. That caused all of my settings to be reset.

You'll find the spyder.ini file inside your home directory and the "invisible" directory .spyder-py3/config . Make a backup of the file just in case and play around to see if you can disable the shortcut.

Hi @ptoche,

I confirm that modifying the spyder.ini file as you suggested fixed the issue.

Thanks a lot for your help!
