Keyboard Shortcut ctrl+d (init model) - does not work any more

For about two weeks now, the keyboard shortcut Ctrl+d to init the model no longer works. . All other keyboard short cuts (like Ctrl+S, Ctrl+B) work fine. I have checked the matlab preferences and tried to change to an other Keyboard short cut combination. But no success.

Hi @Dieter Diewald

I understand that keyboard shortcut Ctrl+D is not working to update diagram. You can perform the following workarounds:

1. Check for Conflicts: Ensure that the Ctrl+D shortcut is not being used by another application or system process that might be intercepting the keystroke before MATLAB does.
2. Reset Preferences: Sometimes, MATLAB preferences can become corrupted. You can try resetting MATLAB preferences to their default settings.
3. Keyboard Layout: Check if the keyboard layout has been changed accidentally. Ensure that you are using the correct layout that matches your physical keyboard.
4. MATLAB Support: If none of the above steps resolve the issue, consider contacting MathWorks support for assistance. There might be a specific bug or issue with your MATLAB installation that they can help address. See here: https://www.mathworks.com/support/contact_us.html

Thanks,

Hi Ayrush, thanks for your answer.

1. Check for Conflicts: Ensure that the Ctrl+D shortcut is not being used by another application or system process that might be intercepting the keystroke before MATLAB does. - How can I check this?

2. Reset Preferences: Sometimes, MATLAB preferences can become corrupted. You can try resetting MATLAB preferences to their default settings. - How can I reset the preferences to default?

3. Keyboard Layout is ok

what do you mean init model?

https://in.mathworks.com/help/simulink/ug/summary-of-mouse-and-keyboard-actions.html#butxv7y it is used to update the code

[Dieter Diewald]

sorry that was the old naming. New naming is 'update model' and this short cut Ctrl+D stop working.

Seems like a bug to me. Did you update your version? And if you did try contacting the Mathworks Support Team to resolve the issue. For me it works in r2023b version.

Yes, it seems so. It stop working from one day to the other. I use that short cut over 15 years, so I was very surprised. I think I have to go in contact with the support.
