I'm using shortcut AltGr+X or Ctrl+Alt+X to type # hashtag symbol in the code editor. However, even though I don't have any binding in eclipse for this shortcut, I can't type this symbol. Other symbols such as @ (AltGr+V) work normally. I can also copy-paste # that I type anywhere else.

Here are my key-bindings: https://textuploader.com/1c2qw

After applying "Show key binding when command is invoked" I can confirm no command is being run, however nothing is typed.

I'm using CES (Czech) keyboard layout, I can type # using Shift+3 on ENG (United states) layout.

Using Windows 10 64 bit.
