Alt key gets stuck build 6066

Hi,

I have had a problem for a while using IS/ISBoxer with Diablo 3 for quite some time. Essentially if I hit the alt key I am no longer able to reliable switch between windows anymore. It is almost 100% of the time if I hit the alt key. I have pasted a link to my toolkit profile below. I use the character set witchdoctors. Once it gets screwed up there isn't much that can be done to fix it. Sometimes when I switch between characters it doesn't fill the hole in the other screen where the window should be until I click on the main window. Other times the main window just will no longer display. Also I have noticed that once this occurs, if I click inside one of the smaller windows it switches to it in the main window but it also sends the mouse click into the window which is a behavior that doesn't normally occur if I click on another window to make it the main screen. It also causes other windows on the machine to get "stuck" as well until all IS windows get closed.

My resolution settings etc. are 1920/1200 full screen with all effects on/highest graphical detail. My computer handles this fine framerate wise. Is this something that other people have had issue with? I noticed in recent patch notes a mention of stuck keys but it was about pressing both left and right at the same time. This seems somewhat different as I only ever use the left alt.

My screen setup is using two 1920/1200 monitors with the main screen having the active and the other screen having a small version of each window visible along with a DXnothing that I put the minimap on to quickly see legendary drops.

Are you pressing alt and then moving out of the window before you release? I've seen modifiers get stuck like that in the past.

There is nothing that sticks out in your Profile (well to me anyway), with the exception that in your Window Layout your DXnothings are probably being shrunk so editing them must be a PITA, and that your VideoFX is probably all fuzzy.

Perhaps a Diagnostic may help narrow it down. http://isboxer.com/wiki/Diagnostics

I just tried it and I definitely just hit alt then wait a second to test switching between dudes.

My DXnothings have been a huge pain in the ass. and they are super fuzzy unless the region they are displaying is the main full screen window. Is there something that I did wrong there? If there is a change I should make to that, I might just blow all my settings out of the water and redo everything to test that also.

Oh yeah that makes sense. Any idea on the stuck alt key thing?

Do you have Sticky Keys turned on?

No all accessibility options are off.

I redid everything from scratch and it still seems to do it when pressing alt.

Re: Alt key gets stuck build 6066

This is most likely due to other running software -- there is nothing related to just Alt in your config, especially not by default on a clean install (unless you set one of the Hotkeys to be just Alt), and this clearly does not happen for everyone else (that sounds pretty unusable).

We need ISBoxer's "Diagnostics for game crashes" (we are aware it is not crashing, but this provides the information we need) from the Help menu to continue to help looking into this
