[Qgis-user] Delete key does not remove item in composer

[Richard Duivenvoorde]

I can reproduce:

in english both keys work, but if I start QGIS in German:

qgis3 --lang de

then only backspace works, del does not

(My OS is Debian english, US keyboard, LANGUAGE=en_US:en

Please create an issue for it (and preferably try some other languages
too :-) )

Regards,

Richard
