  • Feature (e.g. agent/edit/ask mode): all mode
  • Selected model: all model
  • Logs: no logs

Steps to Reproduce:

  1. Change the default keyboard shortcut at keybindings.json:

    {
      "key": "alt+/",
      "command": "workbench.action.chat.openModelPicker",
      "when": "chatIsEnabled && inChatInput"
    },
    {
      "key": "ctrl+alt+.",
      "command": "-workbench.action.chat.openModelPicker",
      "when": "chatIsEnabled && inChatInput"
    },
    
  2. Open Chat in New Window via Ctrl + Shift + P > Chat: Open Chat in New Window

  3. Press Alt + /

  4. Chat View in Secondary Side Bar is opened and focused.

  5. Btw, Model Picker in Chat View in Secondary Side Bar is not opened.
