I'm trying to set up an ⌃⌥L hot key for a macro, but for some reason that I can't figure out, when I try to "record" this hot key, it's being read as the space bar.
I've used this exact hot key in the past without issue, so I'm really confused why it's suddenly causing this weirdness.
Any suggestions? I checked, and I'm pretty sure this hot key isn't being used anywhere else in Keyboard Maestro.
Thanks, Chris. Yes, I have restarted and rebooted, but the issues persists.
To try to figure out what was going on, I attempted pressing ⌃⌥L with a text editor open. The first time I press it, " L1 " is automatically typed. The second time I press it, " L2 " is automatically typed. The third time I press it, " L3 " is automatically typed. The fourth time I press it, " L4 " is automatically typed. The fifth time I press it, the cycle described here begins anew, i.e. " L1 " is automatically typed, and so on. (This all perhaps explains why the keyboard shortcut is being read by Keyboard Maestro as a space, since all of the above begin with a space.)
I'm totally baffled as to what is going on here. I'll take your recommendation and try ShortcutDetective, to see if that reveals anything.
