Applies to any dialog that can be opened with the keyboard, e.g. the keyboard shortcuts dialog

@robintown can you help reproduce the issue by demonstrating with a video or something when you're free, i don't seem to understand the original issue statement very well

@yaya-usman This is what it looks like:

@robintown Thanks, So how do i enable recently viewed breadcrumbs can't find it in the room settings. Also when i hit ctrl+K, it doesn't bring the keyboard shortcuts dialog like in the video but rather a search dialog.

The new breadcrumbs menu is a labs feature, so you'd need to enable labs settings and then enabled it. The new search experience is also labs feature though it should be accessible as a beta option in the labs section

@SimonBrandner Thanks, But so far i could only find Thread and new search experience in the labs settings as in the image below, no viewed breadcrumb or is there other way of enabling it?

[SimonBrandner]

You need to enable labs, see https://github.com/vector-im/element-web/blob/develop/docs/labs.md, I would suggest moving to https://matrix.to/#/#element-dev:matrix.org for further discussion

@SimonBrandner Thanks, it's now enabled
