Alt Gr + space open pause menu

I use alt-gr key to sprint but when I want to sprint and jump, it open the pause menu. This is very annoying and I don't have found a way to disable that in the menu.

This is not dependent of the fonction of the space key or the alt-gr key, even if they're not allocated for anything, the menu open.

Steps to reproduce:

  • Go in a singleplayer map or a multiplayer server.

  • Press Alt-gr + space at the same time

Observed Results:**

Opening of the pause menu.

Expected Results:**

Nothing.

Maybe it doesn't work on mineplex and only works in regular worlds.

Thank you for your report!
However, this issue is Working as Intended.

The report you have submitted is working as intended: Alt+space opens the window menu of the currently opened program and can be used in any application, including Minecraft. Since AltGr functions as Alt+Ctrl, pressing AltGr+space also opens that menu, which pauses Minecraft because the window is no longer focused. You can use Ctrl to sprint if you want to avoid unintentionally opening the pause menu.

Please note, that mechanics of the game may change between updates.
Things such as graphics, sounds, world creation, biomes, redstone, villagers, and animals may not work the same in current versions.

Hi,

A work-around I've found is to bind Alt to a different key using a third party program.

With AutoHotKey, I bound Alt to Ctrl but it only applies when the "Minecraft" window is up using this script:

; this makes a rule which is applied only to window with a specific title
SetTitleMatchMode, 2

; obviously below you write the title that is contained in your program's window
#IfWinActive, Minecraft
Alt::Ctrl ; alt will now send ctrl

Unfortunately Alt + Tab won't work to get out of the window but it will work to get back into it.
