command key in iOS simulator

The iOS simulator shortcuts frequently use the command key. I notice that when running in the simulator, attempts in my program to catch command-z, command-y, etc. don't work. I assume the reason is that the system interprets them as simulator commands, not keypresses to be passed to my iOS app.

Is there a way to change that behavior?

For your case when you use command-z, command-y, etc. first time in simulator you paste it to Simulator buffer. For paste to your app you need add Shift key for second time command-z+shift, command-y+shift

  1. command-c (copy any string in mac)
  2. command-v (paste to simulator buffer)
  3. command-v-shift (paste to your app)

I'm not sure for possible changes this behavior. Try to find the same shortcuts in Settings (Xcode and Mac)
