Dumb question about chat

[Lisotte]

Character Config > General > turn off Direct Chat

Edit: Not just Enter. The / key will also open your chat bar, as well as the chat shortcut keys (e.g. alt+p for party).

See that's still my problem here. Direct chat is definitely disabled, but I'm hitting the / key constantly and if I hit /s then it'll start chatting. If I hit a macro and s at the same time, it will start chatting 100% of the time.

Ah, sorry, misunderstood.

I've never seen macros cause the chat bar to get focus, but I've never tried to make it happen, either. Is it with every macro you've got, or just specific ones?

The only time I've had the chat bar pop up on me without my consent is when I reinstalled and forgot to turn off the default chat binds. Specifically, alt+s and alt+a, trying to move while activating skills on alt+something.

lol for various reasons my macros do include alt+s and such... that explains it
