Mac OS option key shortcuts not working, how to make it work?

Question

I have a very long line which I want to view as wrapped.

There is an option called word wrap that can help me achieve this.

Anyhow the shortcut method option + z doesn't work, instead inserts a ˀ there.

Any solutions?

Looks like one of your extension might be overriding your VSCode config. Try ⌘+SHIFT+P/CMD+SHIFT+P and then search for View: Toggle Word Wrap/Toggle Word Wrap.

You will then be able to see the shortcut assigned to that command on your local PC. Alternatively, ⌘+SHIFT+P/CMD+SHIFT+P and search for Keyboard Shortcuts. In there search for OPTION+z and check for the answers which pop up.
