Since upgrading to build 4180, I am unable to type when in Full Screen. I enter full screen by selecting the “View -> Enter Full Screen” from the menu bar (or using the ^⌘F shortcut) - NOT by using the green Mac button in the top left of the program. When I enter full screen mode in this manner, I’m no longer able to type. The same problem exists when entering Distraction Free mode.
Build 4180: Cannot Type in Full Screen Mode

I have the same issue. I can type in full screen mode, but I can’t use my arrow keys. My system beeps at me when I try to use arrow keys.
If I exit full screen mode, the problem remains until I close the window and reopen it. If I have multiple windows open, it only affects the one that went full screen.
I use the Mac “fake full screen” option, not the native full screen mode.
macOS 14.6.1 (also tried on 14.6.0)

Also of note, I just tried using native full screen mode (using the green button) and the problem does not exist.
It must be related to the Mac use_simple_full_screen option.

Same here. I use simple full screen. After the update I can’t edit any files. MacOS beeps for any key press

Unlike @bean19, I’m unable to type anything - it’s not just the arrow keys. I also tested on macOS 12 and had the same problem.

I did the same @noma4i. Do you know if there is a way to set Sublime not to prompt me to upgrade to 4180 specifically? But to wait for whatever release comes next?

Having the same problem using use_simple_full_screen:true. Guess I’ll also have to roll back until the next version hopefully fixes it.

I also have this issue, with use_simple_full_screen:true - on Mac.
Any idea when the next version is slated to release that fixes this?
