[이미지 001] I use a lot of ‘Alt + α, β …’ in shortcuts, and it’s so uncomfortable that it’s always selected in the menu bar like the image above after using shortcuts with Alt. I’m sure someone has had the same problem as me, and I think someone has solved it. Please help me.

This is unfortunately a Windows feature. As you can see in the menu there are underlined letters. Pressing ALT + a letter brings up the given menu and then it is possible to do the same in the submenu.

Yeah, I know that. I’m wondering if there’s any other route to not use the feature.

It is possible but also depends on the windows version. You have to disable it in the registry. I recommend Google or the Win forum.

Okay thank you. Waiting for other people’s help, I will also look for the way you said it. Thank you again.

Interesting… Windows 7 doesn’t have this problem.

I don’t think that’s a wise solution. Because you know it wellShippy, we have to create a minimum number of clicks and a minimum number of typing in a project. I know how to press the alt one more time or cancel by pressing esc. However, if you can disable that function, you can cut the number of typing times you press 100000 times in half! This is a huge thing. Please understand if my expression is not smooth. I am not good at English…

That’s right… But I can’t downgrade to Windows 7 for Just one sketchup program, so it’s a difficult situation.

This is still a bug…? [image] Bug – Alt Key Not Releasing The Menu Bar Focus SketchUp Unfortunately, a fix did not make the latest update (23.0.1) @colin confirmed to me that, yes it had been logged internally by @trent. Yes it a pain, but an extra click on ALT or ESC or a click on empty space in the modeling area will clear the menu focus.

[image] FJAY: I don’t think that’s a wise solution. It’s not meant as a permanent solution. But it’ll work until you get a real fix. First make sure you have the latest release of SU2023 installed.
