Hotkeys for scroll command does not work properly with Alt

  • OPERATING SYSTEM: Windows 10

:arrow_forward: ISSUE EXPERIENCED

When I associate the scroll command hotkeys with Alt + A, Alt + S, Alt + D and Alt + W (to scroll left, down, right and up respectively), it scrolls the screen also with A, S, D and W, instead of just using the key Alt pressed.

The problem is that I already use A, S, D and W for other functions, so I would like the screen scrolling to only occur when I hold Alt. Scrolling occurs both holding Alt and not holding it.

:arrow_forward: FREQUENCY OF ISSUE

  • 100% of the time / matches I play (ALWAYS)

:arrow_forward: REPRODUCTION STEPS

Here’s the steps to reproduce the issue:

  1. I put the scroll command on the Alt + A key, to scroll left;
  2. I put the scroll command on the Alt + S key, to scroll down;
  3. I put the scroll command on the Alt + D key, to scroll right;
  4. I put the scroll command on the Alt + W key, to scroll up;
  5. So in the game, in addition to scrolling the screen with the keys Alt + A, Alt + S, Alt + D and Alt + W, the screen is also scrolled with the keys A, S, D and W instead of just working with the keys I placed earlier.

:arrow_forward: EXPECTED RESULT

Therefore, in the game, the screen should only scroll with the keys Alt + A, Alt + S, Alt + D and Alt + W. And in case I only press the keys A, S, D and W, without Alt, no scroll the screen.

I’m having a very similar issue.

shift+wheel up = scroll up
shift+wheel down = scroll down
ctrl+shift+wheel up = scroll right
ctrl+shift+wheel up = scroll left

Doesn’t work. They do work with the default arrow buttons.

I tried ctrl+wheel up/down to rotate a gate and that works as intended.

I tried then tried ctrl+wheel up/down for scrolling. That didn’t work.

Also I can’t get the click-drag scroll to work. Tried the default “/”. Didn’t work. Tried “Y”. didn’t work. If anyone has any experience with Adobe Illustrator, if you want to click drag, you hold space, then click and drag with your mouse, and the workspace will move as if you’re holding and dragging the workspace. I assume that’s how it’s intended to work. You hold the hotkey, then click the screen, hold that click, drag the mouse, and the view will move accordingly. Figured I’d just establish that fact to make sure we’re on the same page.

ctrl, shift, alt, they all seem to work as intended in every other context, but for whatever reason, with these scrolling functions I can’t get hotkeys to work using those keys.

If there is anymore information I can provide to assist in debugging this let me know. Thanks.
