The shortcut to use the "m" key to combine multimeasures of rest isn't working
As the title states, when I press the "m" key, the measures of rests don't combine and I'm curious how to fix it. It's not an issue with my keyboard as I have typed the letter M multiple times haha! I hope someone knows how to help

Indeed, since 4.4, the shortcut has changed to : Ctrl/Cmd + Shift + M

What a weird change! Thanks cadiz
Figured it out! If anyone else is having problems with shortcuts, click "Edit" > "Preferences" > and then "Shortctus"
There will be a search bar on the top right where you can find specific shortcuts. For example, I searched "measure" to find the measure shortcuts and found the one I needed. It was defaulted to Ctrl + Shift + M, which was pretty gross lol!

The shortcut was changed to Ctrl+Shift+M because so many users have complained over the years about accidentally enabling mmrests and not knowing what they are or how to disable them again.
You can change it back if you like in Edit / Preferences / Shortcuts, which is also where can verify what the current shortcut is.

So, affecting the majority because beginners have yet to learn how to use the application.
Personally, I don't really agree with that attitude.
