Shift key not being Recognized

Hey guys, I’m having an issue with my Left shift key, specifically when in game/combat. I can capitalize chats, I can use shift in every other app, I just bought a Keychron Q1 as well, and for some reason when I use Arcane orb with Shift Middle mouse click as the bind, it uses blink occasionally as just middle mouse button. Anyone having a similar issue? It’s becoming a massive problem on Council in the raid because of marks. An even bigger problem on mythic. Please help!

EDIT: I might want to add the fact that this didn’t start happening until this expansion.

I think more info may be needed.

  1. How you are doing the “keybinding”
  2. is the keybinding (shift-middle mouse) triggering a macro or the spell directly. If its a macro, you should post that because that can also have its own problems.

There’s a few different ways to achieve “keybinding”. There are addons with their own functionality and none of those are standard but knowing which addon can still help.
I think the 2 built in ways are through the Options->Keybindings menu with Click Casting (which can trigger a spell or a macro) or Keybinding (which I think maps a key combo to an action bar button, which can either be a spell or macro).

Can you provide the extra info?

  1. Do you have your mouse resting on top of any unit frames when it’s not working?

Fair enough, I’m using the default bars, and both keybinds are done through the quick keybind function, and confirmed through the options menu under the keybinds section. I don’t have click casting enabled, and these are just the spells, no macros involved.

No, out of habit and for quick reaction times with blink, I keep my right click held down just about at all times, and not hovered above anything.

Hey, did you ever find a solution? I’m having the exact same issue.
