Describe the bug
I want to map a three-finger swipe left to a key in an RDP application. I've tried both keyboard shortcuts and modifier keys, but neither works. I've set the same configuration in RDP and local Edge applications, and a key detection website shows the gesture is correctly translated into a key sequence. What should I do?

Affected input device (e.g. MacBook Trackpad, Magic Mouse/Trackpad, Touch Bar, etc.):

MacBook Trackpad

The alt key is always released before the arrow keys, causing shortcuts to not take effect

unfortunatel most RDP / VNC / Virtual Machine apps won‘t work well with BTT‘s programmatically generated events. There is no good general worksround for this
