Why is the ctrl key (Mac) buggy sometimes?
In a lot of cases setting up ctrl as mouse modifier key doesn't perform the expected action. It either does nothing or not what it is supposed to do.
Example: My Media item left click setup
Shift: Toggle item selection
Ctrl: Add range of items to selection
Shift+Ctrl: Add range of items to selection
When pressing shift it does what it says, when pressing shift+ctrl it also does what it says but when pressing only ctrl, instead of assigning a range of items to the selection, it just toggles item selection as if I was only pressing shift (hence why I have set up shift+ctrl for doing this).
This is just an example that comes to my mind now but I remember this problem happening in many different situations too. For some things the ctrl key works, for others it just doesn't. Why is that so?
Btw I have of course disabled "Control+left-click emulates right-click".
