    Typically I am using on windows Ctrl+Shift+U to find usages of expressions within my code.

    At the moment I am using also Qt creator on Ubuntu linux 16.04 in a virtualbox and the same key combination does not work. Checking the keystroke settings on windows and linux show the same potential conflict with QmlJSEditor.

    My thought was that the conflict may introduce the different behaviour and I have removed the conflicting setting for QmlJSEditor. After restart of creator the conflict is no longer indicated.
    However, there is still a problem. When pressing the keys there is a 'u' introduced at the current cursor position. However, pressing ctrl+z does not roll back. Repeating ctrl+z will rollback other, previous typing, but the introduced 'u' remains where it is. Closing the file and opening it again shows the original file.

    Does anybody experience a similar strange behaviour and have an explanation?

        @koahnig: Looks like QTCREATORBUG-13811. Quoting there for possible workaround:
        For me, deactivating the "IBUS" keyboard input method, as described here http://superuser.com/questions/358749/how-to-disable-ctrlshiftu-in-ubuntu-linux worked.

        Qt has to stay free or it will die.

            Yes, you are right it does at least partly describe the behaviour. I have checked the workaround. Language support was not installed yet, but I have installed it and changed the setting to none as described. Reboot of virtualbox and it does work now.

            Thanks a lot.
