Bug Report Hotkeys with multiple prefixes conflict with those with single prefix, but same key

[Caedmon]

A hotkey Ctrl+K toggles a source
Another source in the same scene is toggled by Alt+K
So far so good.

When I try to use Ctrl+Alt+K as a hotkey for a related source in a different scene in addition to that source being toggled, *both* the Ctrl+K source and the Alt+K sources are toggled.

I did not expect this -- I expected Ctrl+Alt+K to be an independent key combo.

Is this documented somewhere I missed?

That is expected behavior. The program is just checking whether the keys are pressed -- there's no logic in place for any sort of prioritization.

This is a double-edged sword. For one, this is the simpler way of doing things, as it makes sense to everyone as long as the expectation is in place. It also lets you do nested hotkeys, among other things.

On the other hand, you run into the issue you have where you have to be careful to completely separate out hotkey commands.

That is expected behavior. The program is just checking whether the keys are pressed -- there's no logic in place for any sort of prioritization.

Ctrl+K, Alt+K, Ctrl+Alt+K are commonly considered to be three distinctive keys.
So if this is expected behaviour, consider this a bug at the software design.

I need this separation too. When I have a midi device with over 64 triggers to map this makes it nearly impossible.
