I got a new macbook and loaded a new version of Kicad so it’s a little hard to tell what isn’t working but I’ve had some issues.
The U and I hotkeys seem to work differently with U in particular - which used to select a whole track if one segment was selected, doesn’t do that anymore. It just selects the endpoint on a segment. This used to be useful for deleting a whole track by clicking on a segment, hitting ‘u’ and then delete.
The Edit Track and Vias Properties also appears not to be working. I set options, choose a new width and … nothing changes.
There used to be a hotkey which would push and shove tracks without detaching single segments - I can’t remember it and can’t seem to find it. Any help appreciated.
There are more anomalies but maybe I’ll figure them out.
Edit: I must have had one segment of a track locked, probably just from fishing around for keyboard equivalents. I deleted the track and function seemed to return to normal.

Can you exactly tell which version? (there are some different v6.0.x versions out there, with continuously decreasing number of bugs). Latest version should be v6.0.5.

As craftyjohn wrotes: this sentence is not really helpful. It’s possible to create a screenshot from the “Edit Track and Vias Properties”-dialog and attach that picture? Also include a screenshot from the tracks-parameters before/after the operation.
One of the first uses of hitting the same key twice may have been invented for C++ comments, where two slashes are used to start a single line comment.
