Samsung Notes for PC hotkeys / slavic characters problem

Hi,

I'm using Samsung Notes as my primary note taking app on all of my devices (Samsung PC, tablet and smartphone) and I think it's awesome. However I recently encountered a small, yet irritating problem. Whenever I'm writing a note  from my keyboard and press "Right Alt + L", the app stops typing and triggers a hotkey to block canvas.

This may not be a problem for anyone not using Polish as a language, but the same hotkey is widely used to type the polish character "Ł" across the entire Windows 11. The interesting part is, that when I try to press "Right Alt + L" several times, it finally types the character in the note. So clearly there is some sort of hotkey glitch in the app as the same hotkey is assigned for more than one action in Samsung Notes and Windows.

How can I edit the hotkey for "block canvas" in the Samsung Notes for PC?

I looked for it in app settings, but there is no such option there. The note taking language is set to polish.

Well... kinda, yes. I learned that when typing, you just need to firmly hold down the right ALT to force the character (do it as usual, but slower than on PC). It is still annoying though.

I have a similar issue.
I'm using a Slovak keyboard layout with my bluetooth keyboard.
In the Samsung Notes app, when I press ALT+P it triggers a page sorter menu.
I simply want to type the symbol '
This symbol is typed using RALT+P in the Slovak language.
I can hardly type anything without using '
Please devs let us disable this annoying shortcut to open the page sorter.
