Is there an existing issue for this?

I have searched the existing issues

Current behavior

I'm using dvorak keyboard layout, so the . key on my keyboard is actually v.
When I press CTRL and this key, hopscotch says copied to clipboard, while I intended to paste.
Hopscotch obviously thinks I pressed CTRL+., but that's not the case.

Steps to reproduce

Switch your keyboard layout to dvorak (I'm using windows)
Open hopscotch
Press CTRL and the key with . printed on it. (so to an ousider, to someone who's watching you behind your shoulder, you are pressing CTRL+., but what you are really pressing is CTRL+v)
Hopscotch shows copied to clipboard

Environment

Production

Version

I am also facing this problem..
I don't know how they have implemented this. but it should work according to key not by keycode..

Also facing this. It's really hard to use when copy pasting doesn't work on inputs. The bug comes from keybinding checking the code property instead of the key

@jamesgeorge007 I started using hoppscotch recently and really liked it! I just wish there wasn't this issue so I submitted a PR: #3978
