Shift as secondary action on home row not working [solved]

Using Chrysalis, I’ve set Shift as a secondary action under F and J, but they don’t work. I also have set Command as secondary action under D and K, and that works perfect.

Is there something I’m doing wrong? I already tested with Space Cadet enabled/disabled, but no such luck. What else can I do?

Thanks in advance!

Not sure what changed, but for some reason Shift is working now. So, consider this issue to be solved.

Mmm… today Shift stopped working again on home rows. Same as with the Atreus.

Anyone else with this issue?

I am having the same problem. If I set secondary action to lshift or rshift, it is not registered. alt, ctrl, super working without a problem, however shift is ignored.

actually I read in github issues that somebody else had that problem and their workaround was to disable space cadet.
I had my default layout shift keys unassigned from space cadet to regular shifts. However short tap was still printing parenthesis.
So I what I did:

  1. explicitly disabled space cadet on those keys and then uploaded my layout
  2. again assigned them to shift keys. and uploaded layout.(short taps stopped adding parenthesis)

then I went again to test the secondary shift that I had on a home row and now it was working.

so I guess next time ‘shift’(as secondary action) will stop working, I will go check if space cadet got enabled on a default layout 'shift’s again.

Yeah, it seems to be related to SpaceCadet. I’ll test it out a bit more and longer to see if that really is the issue. Thanks.
