Alt + Tilde overlapping function

Question

I design many Figma stuff in Japanese language, and Alt + Tilde on Windows is the shortcut for switching between Japanese input and Latin input. However, recent Figma update incorporated Alt + Tilde as a toggle between Draw mode and Design mode which is really annoying. When I want to switch input methods, the mode switch also escapes the typing field and disrupt the workflow. Please provide a fix on this.

Thanks for flagging this!I understand that using Alt + tilde to switch between Japanese and Latin input is also switching Figma between Design and Draw, which is disrupting your workflow.I’m checking in with the team on this and will follow up here as soon as I have more information.Thanks for your patience in the meanwhile!
