) (so ten instead of 11 bullets) and then an “invalid password” error, which makes this problem hard do diagnose.Because it is a password field, the only indication will be a missing bullet ( This happens most commonly when you have a hot key trigger with the same key (eg Control-T) as a key you want to type in to a password field (eg “Hello there”). So if it tries to simulate the same key that you are holding down, in a password field, it will still simulate the press and release, but because the key is already held down, the press will not do anything and the keystroke will be lost. ![]() Because of this, Keyboard Maestro does not know that you are still holding down a key and therefore cannot know to release it. However, in a password field (or any time Secure Input is enabled), Keyboard Maestro and other applications cannot see the state of the keyboard (for obvious security reasons). ![]() If the key is already being held down by you (eg because you pressed the key as a trigger), then Keyboard Maestro notices this, and first releases the key, and then presses and releases the key. ![]() ![]() When Keyboard Maestro simulates a keystroke, it simulates both the press and the release.
