Console activation key configuration file

#1

Hi. I can not open console using “CTRL+`” (spanish keyboard).

I find entries here saying to remap this activation keystroke.

But when I select “Preferences” + “Key Bindings” a two part screen comes up.

On the right, my “User” mappings, from
.config/sublime-text-3/Packages/User/Default (Linux).sublime-keymap"

On the left, some “system” configuration, where I find
{ "keys": ["ctrl+"], “command”: “show_panel”, “args”: {“panel”: “console”, “toggle”: true} },`
… but cannot edit it.

What am I doing wrong ?
I am using ST3 under Ubuntu.
Thanks.

PD.- what is the name and location of the file where “CTRL+`” is assigned ?

PD2.- I have noticed I dont have the directory
.config/sublime-text-3/Packages/Default/

Is it meaningful ?

The pane on the left is the defaults, the pane on the right is your bindings. If you want to modify a key binding, you copy the key binding from the left into your key bindings, then modify it as you would like (in your case, to change the key).

The name of the file where the default binding is is the name of the file that is open in the left hand pane. You’re not meant t have a Default folder in Packages. There are multiple places where packages can load from, and the Packages folder is just one of them.

The packages that ship directly with Sublime don’t show up there.
