The "keyboard shortcut" in the Add User Command doesn't work

pompomgalli

Hey there,

New user here, this product is awesome. However, I can't manage to use the macro editor (where you add the user command) properly : whenever I try to use a keyboard shortcut of mine, it doesn't work; and often does something very different of what I'm asking. I tried several keys, with combinations of CTRL, ATL, etc. Nothing seems to work. Any idea on how to fix this issue ?

Thanks a lot

pompomgalli could you record your screen and show the issue in the recording? You can upload video right here.

Sure, here it is :

As you see, I made a simple command to show you. This command is supposed to activate my key "S" which is binded to "Add edit"
However, when I use the shortcut for this command (which is here CTRL + 1 (numpad) ), it does't add an edit, and it's saving my project. I try others keys with the same result.

pompomgalli I see. Try to add 'Wait' command (something like 100-300ms) at the start of your user command. I think you don't release ctrl key fast enough and it affects consecutive s keypress, so it becomes ctrl+s keystroke.
