Operating System / Platform

🐧️ Linux

Operating system architecture

x64 (64-bit Intel/AMD)

Electron version

v30.0.1

Application version

WebCord v4.9.1, stable build

Bug description

When i press Alt+Shift (exactly in this order) to switch language while typing, it gives focus the Alt menu on the top of the window (like if i only pressed Alt) and i have to press Esc to continue writing a message which is pretty annoying. However, if i press Shift+Alt (in this order), it doesnt happen. Enabling "Hide menu panel automatically" in webcord settings doesnt help. Thanks!

Additional context

Running the window in native Xorg.

This kinda works as expected. I have no control over how menu is called from what I know, and WebCord doesn't configure this, if any API in Electron was or will be introduced for that... I guess auto menu hide is also not supposed to prevent you from both interacting with menu, especially with Alt key being registered by Electron to actually un-hide it when needed. So unless I'll find that Electron actually offers some API for it, I can't help that much with fixing it for the moment...
