Similar key sequences suddenly stop working

@Andreas_Hegenberg A group of key sequences are no longer working. The structure is always the same. They used to work fine; I don't know what I could do or change.

have you tried the key sequence visualizer? (if you record a quick video of it I can probably tell what wrong)

I think what's shown here suggests that something was triggered. But unfortunately, that's not the case.

Ah, I found the problem. When I disable the preset at the bottom, everything works normally.

But I don't understand it. The preset briefly disables the arrow key if Shift was pressed before. By the way, you did it for me :slightly_smiling_face:

shift-arrow1.bttpreset (6.9 KB)

what kind of actions do the problematic key sequences trigger? is it maybe a problem with the action somehow relying on the arrow key?

Man, this is a total mess.:joy:

BTT crashes every time I press Left Shift + R. But not with Right Shift + R

I probably assigned a KS twice. Or something else. However, two identical KS shouldn't cause a crash. There's no conflict menu; instead, BTT triggers one of them more or less randomly... if I remember correctly.

Sorry, I don’t remember how to access the crash log anymore?

sounds like something triggering infinitely (one action sequence causing another trigger to execute that them executes an action sequemce that triggers a trigger again)

Crashlogs are in the macOS console app's user reports / crash log section

The crash was caused by a shortcut with the action below, and the issue has been resolved by disabling it. I'll take another look at the rest and get back to you. Thanks for now. :slight_smile:

Okay, the original question remains:

Why does this KS only work when the “shift-arrow” preset is disabled? I can't see the connection. Except that the right Shift key is used in both cases.
