Modifier problem, possibly linux related

[rarr]

Heres the crack, take a simple macro:

/cast fireball

Assign it to a toolbar and a keybinding of numpad 1. Now if I hit ctrl + 1 or Alt + 1 it still activates. I've even put in [nomod] and it still goes off.

Anyone else had this problem or am I alone? ?(

Yeh, its not linux related.

If you have the keystrokes, alt+1, ctrl+1, shift+1, assigned to other actions, the ones on your action bars won't go off

Edit: Alternatively u could make the macro /cast fireball [nomod]; [mod:alt]; [mod:ctrl]; [mod:shift] and i'm pretty sure that'll make it do nothing when u press the modifiers, i'm not well versed in macro making though.. could be wrong.

Sorry I'm tired and didn't explain myself very well...

If i put in the macro /cast fireball in and keybind it to numpad 1 and press:

ctrl + numpad 1 alt + numpad 1 numpad 1It runs. I've assigned it to just numpad 1 so by my understanding it shouldnt...However shift + numpad 1 doesnt make it run...

This is because numpad is handled a bit differently

shift+numpad = does the functions that numpad without num lock on would do

so shift+numpad2 = down arrow etc

I had the same problem with my shaman healing matrix

also

I've assigned it to just numpad 1 so by my understanding it shouldnt... as nogbog mentions, Wow lets modifiers fall through... this means that unless the key combination is explicitly bound, it will ignore the modifier and carry out the action

so if you don't have a CTRL-1 bound to anything, wow will do the action bound to 1

All my years of computing etc and I never knew this :rolleyes:

Sounds odd but yeah I understand why it's doing it now.

Cheers :)
