Karabiner-elements: some apps does not recognise modification keys with karabiner enabled

Created on 29 Sep 2016 · 4Comments · Source: pqrs-org/Karabiner-Elements

this is a bit weird bug - I use some karabiner replacements while it is not ready like steer mouse and controllermate. When I enable karabiner-elements they do not recognise modifier keys (command, alt, shift, option).

keep up great work! hope this will be fixed some day//

Confirming that any modifier key + mouse button doesn't work for me in any program-- iTunes, Safari, Firefox, iTerm2, Finder, Photoshop CS6-- unless Karabiner-Elements is killed.

I've seen another example of this: in Safari, command-clicking on a link to open it in a new tab in the background doesn't work with Karabiner-Elements enabled: it opens it in the foreground as if command wasn't clicked. When Karabiner-Elements is disabled you get normal behavior.

Can it be somehow related to #120 ?
