Title basically explains it. The “CMD + \” keyboard shortcut to show/hide the UI in both Figma and Figjam isn’t working for me. I reloaded the page and restarted Figma but still not working. I use this shortcut multiples times a day so it’s definitely impacting my workflow. 

 

I’m on a MacBook Pro with M4 Pro, Sequoia 15.3.1

Hey ​@d.lui, thanks for flagging this! 

We just tested this out, and the shortcut is working as expected on the desktop app and in browser for us in both Figma and FigJam.

What keyboard layout are you using (i.e. U.S. QWERTY)? Does anything happen when attempting to use Cmd + \?  Is this shortcut by any chance being used by any other app on your MacBook? (1Password, for example, is known to override Figma’s Cmd + \ shortcut.)
