Accessibility Shortcut 'Mute/Unmute'
While working on a new accessibility tech demo for a client I found an issue where setting up a custom trigger for 'CTRL+ALT+M' stopped that from functioning as a mute/unmute even with keyboard controls turned on. I was hoping to use the custom trigger to toggle a boolean used to display a graphic on screen when the audio is muted.
I'd love to know if this is intentional (not allowing multiple triggers for the same key presses) or just a bug.
Hi, Kenneth.
If a set of keys has a function already assigned to it, my understanding is that you won't be able to create a trigger using those same keys.
I hope other community members might have a workaround for you. Here's an example of a thread that discusses how to use the F(Function) keys using Javascript:
While not exactly what you're looking to do, maybe it will point you in the right direction for using assigned keys with triggers.
