Keyboard shortcuts only working outside Ubuntu 18.04 OS
I've installed Ubuntu using Virtualbox and any keyboard shortcuts I try doesn't work inside Ubuntu.
For example, I'm in VScode trying to make a new file pressing Ctrl+F and it only applies to virtualbox making Full Screen.
Or, if I try to go to keyboard settings or custom settings to change shortcut it doesn't even perceive my new inputs.
In short, writing something in terminal or files work well, but All the keyboard shortcuts I hit in Ubuntu are not perceived and works only outside the OS which is Virtualmachine. How to solve this?
