Hi folks

Whenever I try to import photos on Figma frame with the keyboard shorcut Cmd + Shift + K, Notions’s search windows open (Because it has same shortcut) The action takes place in Notion running in background instead active Figma window.

Can anybody help?

Hey Ankit, the shortcut works on my end. Is this happening in the browser or the desktop app? Or both? Also could you share a screen recording with us, so I can share this internally and ask the team.

@Gayani_S ,
the shortcut Cmd + Shift + K is working fine when Notion is not running on the background.

Once I open Notion and switch back to Figma and press shortcut keys, it performs action on Notion.

I am using Desktop app.

If you switch to a different app (not Figma), does pressing Shift + Cmd + K activate a Notion shortcut?

In this case this is a Notion issue, I think there should be a setting for that in the app but I don’t know for sure.

Just had this issue. You can indeed fix it on Notion’s end.

In the notion app, go to Preferences > My settings. Then either disable “enable command search” or change the shortcut to something else.

Thanks ! It worked

in notion if you go to settings & members > my setting > you can disable the " Use command search" feature. You can also customise the shortcut to something else if you want to keep. I changed mine to cmd+shift+spacebar.
