Beeps in Key Sequences

Configuration Help & General Discussion
1

Hi. I am trying to get rid of the beeps produced by macos in certain cases when creating key sequences in BTT.

As I understand the issue, when the the system receives key events that doesn't know how to handle there is a beeping sound. For example when in Finder you press some unused keyboard shortcut (i.e. command + F1) it makes a beep. If you then assign some action to that keyboard shortcut in BTT, the beep stops. But if you create instead a keyboard sequence the beep stays.

Is there anyway to suppres them?

Correct, this is because key sequences do not block the keyboard input from reaching the system. Keyboard shortcuts do.

You could workaround this by defining some initial trigger that executes the "Start Blocking Keyboard Input" action and then call the "Stop Blocking Keyboard Input" action once the sequence is triggered.
