Caps mapped to control does not handle "up"+"down"

[tiagoboldt]

I've got my ctrl mapped on my caps. My hyper is ctrl+cmd.

If I use the actual ctrl key+cmd+up+down, the window will stretch vertically, as it should. If I do the same thing with caps, it doesn't work.

All other shortcuts work, including ctrl+cmd+left+right for horizontal stretching.

Any ideas why? No errors on the console.

I too am having this issue. My hyper is set to ctrl + cmd + shift+alt`. I've disabled the caps_lock key MacOS and remapped it via karabiner-elements to the hyper keys. Works great for all shortcuts other than full length stretching (horizontal and vertical).

Neither karabiner-elements or hammerspoon eventviewer provide any clues as to what's happening.

I've run into this issue as well. If I press my hyper key (caps lock) it doesn't work, but if I manually press the buttons assigned to my hyper key (ctrl+cmd+alt+shift) then it works.

I think the issue might be rooted in the keyboard hardware's rollover (or lack thereof) - as in, it doesn't register certain keypresses if they happen simultaneously. I have this issue on my MacBook's internal keyboard with cursor up+down, but not on my external Cherry keyboard. Workaround: use different keys than cursor up/down (I wish miro had the option to bind multiple keys to one action)
