problem with shift held down and multiple key presses

[kbilsted]

using the mapping

ShiftLeft{!200ms} !AltLeft >> Backspace
AltRight{ShiftLeft}   >> "dddddd"

pressing alt-gr+ shift it prints 'ddddddddd' as expected. Keep holding alt-gr down and re-pressing shift sends a backspace. I would have expected a sequence of 'ddddddddddd'

if i use

@forward-modifiers Shift
ShiftLeft{!200ms} !AltLeft >> Backspace
AltRight{ShiftLeft}   >> "dddddd"

the second time i press shift nothing happens

I'm on mobile now, but have you tried if changing the last line to this makes a difference?

(AltRight ShiftLeft) >> "dddddd"

With that said, many mappings seem to break key repeat. I've come to accept it as a matter of compromise that just has to be made case by case.

...or if you add a [stage] before the last line?

ShiftLeft{!200ms} !AltLeft >> Backspace

Is there a reason you put the !AltLeft after the timeout check?
Doesn't !AltRight ShiftLeft{!200ms} >> Backspace do what you want?
