Separation of the Left & Right Hotkey Actions - Left Shift, Etc.
Example: Left and Right SHIFT cannot be specified in the Hotkey Action. Certain programs only see one or the other.

Can I suggest the following Adjustments to your Issue:
Change Of Title to:
[Cross-Platform] [Feature Request] [Hotkey Action] Separation of the Left & Right Hotkey Actions - Left Shift, Etc.
Adjustment to content of the issue to state the following:
Target Platform: Cross-Platform
Is this a Bug-Fix, Feature Request, or, Other?: Feature Request
Describe the Issue: Currently the "Hotkey" Action within Stream-Pi see's all "CTRL", "SHIFT", &, "META"/"WINDOWS" keys as just singular keys and it does not take into the account the fact that most keyboards have clearly defined "Left" & "Right" bias's to each of those key set's, AND, As a result of that many programs need to have either the "Left" or "Right" key bias's defined.
What Solution do you suggest to Resolve the Issue?: Currently the simplest solution, and the most obvious, is to add additional Hotkey definitions for the following keyboard inputs; "LEFT SHIFT", "RIGHT SHIFT", "LEFT CTRL", "RIGHT CTRL", "LEFT META"/"LEFT WINDOWS", "RIGHT META"/"RIGHT WINDOWS".
I think javafx.scene.robot.Robot needs to replaced and something other than that should be used for hotkeys. I will try to phase it out in favor of xdotool for linux/MacOS, and classic Win32 SendInput for Windows.
This is because Robot seems very limited. There are no Left shift or right shift it seems
@TOGLK Are you asking me to format it like that in the future? I will do my best to describe issues in as much detail as I can but I am not a programmer. My descriptions will be in much simpler terms.

It is okay, I am not a programmer either. It is just for formalities sake, it keeps things easier for external viewers and potential contributors to track.
I have laid out the format above as clearly as I can in this case, but with your feedback in mind I will try to type up a template that you, and others, can follow in the future with a simple use of copying & pasting for the most part to reduce time spent creating new issues which can be boring.
If their is any particular features you'd like me to add to the template then feel free to contact me via the Stream-Pi Discord and I'll do my best to apply such changes in lieu.
