            Bug ID: 132531
           Summary: "Insert Date" kb shortcut not possible with German
                    keyboard
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 6.0.7.3 release
          Hardware: All
                OS: Linux (All)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: minor
          Priority: medium
         Component: Calc
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: christian.gonzalez at nerdocs.at

Description:
The keyboard shortcut for inserting the current date is Ctrl + ";" in
Libreoffice (Calc). At the German keyboard layout, ";" is located on the same
kb button as the ",", but only using the "Shift" key. So Ctrl + ";" really
would mean Ctrl + Shift + ";" - but this keypress combination is used for
inserting the current TIME.
So Inserting the current date is virtually impossible using the keyboard.
BTW - same goes for Ctrl + ` - this is "Show formula". But ` is not available
as single tapped key - you have to press Shift + ' for that - But Ctrl + Shift
+ ' doesn't work neither. 
Better use other key combinations for them. in German.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open Calc, place cursor into a cell
2. Press Ctrl + Shift + ";"
3. The current time is inserted

Actual Results:
as said. you can't insert date, there is no Ctrl + ";" combination on a German
keyboard.

Expected Results:
it should be possible per keyboard shortcut. What would be possible: Maybe use
Ctrl + "," - if this is not taken already.


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No
