The patch [1] for bug 121596 uses Shift+Alt+Space to insert a special character (U+202F / E280AF). It works perfectly on Linux but on macOS a different value (U+A0 / C2A0 / No-Break space) is inserted. Pressing this key combination bypasses the SwEditWin::KeyInput() function (debugger breakpoint not hit). There might be other key combinations that also not work.

Confirming in Version: 6.3.0.0.alpha0+ Build ID: e9db8eceff48290be72591f7422b4fc45e5752fc CPU threads: 4; OS: Mac OS X 10.14.2; UI render: default; VCL: osx; Locale: fr-FR (fr_FR.UTF-8); UI-Language: en-US Calc: threaded Both Alt+Space and Shift+Alt+Space appear to insert the same type of space, at least in Writer (haven't tested the other modules).
(In reply to Alex Thurgood from comment #1) > Confirming... Alex, could you please test other key combinations to see if the issue is restricted to exactly shift+mod2+space or shift+mod2 or mod2+space etc. Gut feeling is that mod2 is taken as mod1 somehow.
Dear Heiko Tietze, To make sure we're focusing on the bugs that affect our users today, LibreOffice QA is asking bug reporters and confirmers to retest open, confirmed bugs which have not been touched for over a year.

We'd really appreciate your help in getting confirmation that the bug is still present. If you have time, please do the following: Test to see if the bug is still present with the latest version of LibreOffice from https://www.libreoffice.org/download/ If the bug is present, please leave a comment that includes the information from Help - About LibreOffice. If the bug is NOT present, please set the bug's Status field to RESOLVED-WORKSFORME and leave a comment that includes the information from Help - About LibreOffice.
