Original bug report: https://projects.blender.org/blender/blender/issues/157217
Blender Version
Broken: version: 5.1.0, does it in 4.4 as well, don't have any earlier version to try.
Short description of error
I guess it's not a bug, more of an oversight.
With "Active Tool" enabled in Preferences -> Keymap -> Tool Keys, using D activates the Annotate tool instead of typing the letter.
As far as I can tell, it's the only key that this, everything else types something as expected.
Report is clear
LLM Reasoning
Got it, let's see. The bug report has a clear title, describes the issue (can't type D when Active Tool is enabled), mentions the steps (Preferences -> Keymap -> Tool Keys, enabling Active Tool). It explains what happens and that other keys work. So the description is clear. So the answer should be Yes.

Report is specific
LLM Reasoning
Got it, let's analyze this bug report. The title is "Text Edit Mode: Can't type with letter D when 'Active Tool' is enabled". The body explains that when "Active Tool" is on, pressing D activates Annotate tool instead of typing D. It specifies the context (Text Edit Mode, Active Tool setting) and a particular key (D). So this is about a specific issue because it's tied to a specific scenario (using D in Text Edit Mode with Active Tool enabled) rather than a vague problem like "crashing while rendering". The example given for specific was crashing during a specific feature, which matches here—specific key and context. So the answer should be 'Specific'.

bf5e9ef2dfShort description of error
In the keymap preferences there is an option to use the Active Tools for shortcuts instead of the modal operation.
It's called "Tool Keys -> Immediate / Active Tools".
If this preference is used and you go into edit mode of a text object, you are unable to type in the letter
D.It will always make the Annotate Tool active instead.

Din it like "Addon"LLM Reasoning
Got it, let's analyze these two bug reports. First, look at the descriptions and steps to reproduce.
Bug report 1: The issue is that when "Active Tool" is enabled (in Keymap -> Tool Keys), typing D in Text Edit Mode activates Annotate tool instead of typing D. Steps aren't detailed but the description says it's about D key not typing because of Active Tool.
Bug report 2: The error is similar—when "Active Tools" preference is used, in Text Object Edit Mode, typing D activates Annotate Tool instead of the letter. The steps are: enable Active Tool, add text object, enter edit mode, type a word with D (like "Addon").
Both reports mention the same scenario: enabling "Active Tool" (or "Tool Keys -> Immediate / Active Tools") in keymap preferences, then in Text Edit Mode, pressing D triggers Annotate tool instead of typing D. The core issue is identical—D key not working as a typed character because it's mapped to Annotate tool when Active Tool is enabled.
So they are the same issue. The answer should be Yes.

Short description of error
I can't type the letter "d" inside a Text object. It activates the annotation tool.
LLM Reasoning
Got it, let's analyze these two bug reports. First, look at the key parts: Description and Steps to reproduce.
Bug report 1 says that with "Active Tool" enabled in Preferences -> Keymap -> Tool Keys, using D activates Annotate tool instead of typing. The issue is about not being able to type 'd' when Active Tool is on.
Bug report 2 says they can't type the letter 'd' inside a Text object because it activates the annotation tool.
Both mention that pressing 'd' doesn't type but activates the annotation tool. The context in both seems related to the same behavior: 'd' key triggering annotation instead of typing. Even though the versions differ (5.1 vs 4.3), the core issue is the same—typing 'd' results in activating a tool instead of inputting the letter. So they are duplicates.

Sampletool is now active by default.Exact steps for others to reproduce the error
Sampletool in the toolbar (opened by pressingT) is active (This should be active by default in 4.4 and abiove)D + LMBSHIFT+ D + LMB,ALT + D + LMBandD + RMBLLM Reasoning
Got it, let's analyze these two bug reports. First, look at the descriptions and steps to reproduce.
Bug Report 1: The issue is about "Active Tool" enabled in preferences, where pressing D activates Annotate tool instead of typing D. So when Active Tool is on, D triggers the tool instead of text input.
Bug Report 2: In the image editor with Sample tool active, the hotkey D + LMB (for annotate) doesn't work. The steps involve having Sample tool active and trying D + LMB, which fails. Other combinations like SHIFT+D+LMB work.
Now, check if they're the same issue. Bug 1 is about D key not typing when Active Tool is enabled (so D triggers a tool instead of text). Bug 2 is about D + LMB not working in image editor with Sample tool active. The contexts are different: one is general text edit mode with Active Tool, the other is image editor with Sample tool. The symptoms are different too—Bug 1 is D not typing (activates Annotate), Bug 2 is D+LMB not invoking annotate. So they're not the same issue. Therefore, the answer is No.

Annotation: The d-key for annotation not correctly bind in edit mode when using: knife tool, loopcut tool, polybuild, curso tool
Exact steps for others to reproduce the error
Notice while drawing ( d-key down + left mouse drag )is broken, erase ( d-key down + right mouse drag) is still working properly.
LLM Reasoning
Got it, let's analyze the two bug reports. First, look at the descriptions and steps to reproduce.
Bug report 1: The issue is that when "Active Tool" is enabled in Preferences -> Keymap -> Tool Keys, pressing D activates the Annotate tool instead of typing the letter D. The key point here is the conflict between the D key for typing and the Active Tool setting causing it to trigger Annotate.
Bug report 2: The issue is that the d-key for annotation isn't correctly bound in edit mode when using specific tools (knife, loopcut, polybuild, curso tool). The steps involve using those tools and trying to draw with D + left mouse drag. So here, the problem is about the annotation binding not working with certain tools.
Now, check if they're the same. Bug 1 is about D key conflicting with Active Tool (Annotate), while Bug 2 is about annotation's d-key not working with specific tools. The contexts are different: one is about typing vs tool activation, the other is about annotation binding in edit mode with certain tools. So they aren't duplicates. Therefore, the answer is No.

Based on the default startup or an attached .blend file (as simple as possible).
Greetings. I have a problem, I think it's mine, I hope.
however, when I put the "text" object, I press Tab to modify the text, and the capital letter D makes it written but when I want to write it small, a menu comes out. Indeed, it changes me or not where I draw on the display, like a notepad. I wanted know if it was my problem A bag thanks
LLM Reasoning
Got it, let's analyze these two bug reports. First, look at the key parts: description and steps to reproduce.
Bug report 1 is about "Text Edit Mode" where when "Active Tool" is enabled in Preferences -> Keymap -> Tool Keys, pressing D activates Annotate tool instead of typing D. The issue is with the key D not typing but triggering a tool.
Bug report 2 talks about a text object: when in edit mode (Tab), capital D works but lowercase d brings up a menu and changes the display like a notepad. Wait, but the first one mentions "Active Tool" setting, while the second doesn't mention that. Also, the first is about D activating Annotate tool, the second is about lowercase d bringing a menu (maybe the same tool? But the steps are different: first is about Active Tool setting, second is about text object in edit mode with Tab.
Wait, let's check the core issue. Bug 1: when Active Tool is enabled, D triggers Annotate instead of typing. Bug 2: when editing text (Tab), lowercase d brings a menu (maybe the same tool). But are they the same? Let's see the steps. Bug 1's step is about having Active Tool enabled in keymap, then pressing D. Bug 2's step is putting a text object, Tab to edit, then pressing lowercase d. The contexts are different: one is about the Active Tool setting affecting D, the other is about text editing mode and lowercase d. Also, bug 1 mentions it's the only key (D) that does this, others work. Bug 2 says capital D works but lowercase doesn't. So maybe not the same? Wait, no—wait, maybe the second one is also about the Active Tool setting? But bug 2 doesn't mention that. Let me recheck.
Bug report 1: "With 'Active Tool' enabled in Preferences -> Keymap -> Tool Keys, using D activates Annotate tool instead of typing." So the cause is the Active Tool setting. Bug report 2: when editing text (Tab), lowercase d brings a menu. Does bug 2 mention the Active Tool setting? No. The steps are different: one is about the keymap setting, the other is about text object edit mode. Also, the first says it's an oversight with D being the only key, the second talks about capital vs lowercase. So they might be different issues. Therefore, the answer is No.
