Game or games this happens in

All

What area of the game / PPSSPP

When I press alt, the button is automatically pressed byttons.
I don't know if this is a bug? If this is a function, then please change the button in the settings. I need to name the action on alt, but I can't do it because of that.

Mapping the Alt key indeed doesn't work very well because it'll activate/deactivate the window menu.

I don't understand what you are saying with this though: "When I press alt, the button is automatically pressed byttons"

For now, I recommend just mapping another key. Using alt as a game key is not really done much these days..

Not sure if it's the same problem that op is having but inputting the analog stick while Alt is being held down, keeps the analog stick held in place.

As far as I know, it's a relic from the era of DOS gaming. While using Alt doesn't cause issues in games that run in true fullscreen, PPSSPP is not such an app. Maybe disabling keys like Alt, Win and Context Menu keys should be considered.

Right, may be should only use mouse click to activate windows menu, like https://stackoverflow.com/questions/9627379/how-to-disable-normal-behaviour-of-alt-key

Ok

I would also like to ask you if it is possible to slow down the keys as like analog limiter? It's just that if the control is on the dpad, then unfortunately the slowing will not be applied to it.

Well, the dpad is the dpad, can't be slowed down - it's either on or off.

Looks good, the focus didn't goes to the menu bar and i can use the Alt button in game.
But the need to edit ppsspp.ini kinda troublesome :)

It seems to work, but if we also press another button, then everything is as it was. I have a player running by himself, but if you only press alt, it's fine.

If, for example, I run and press alt, then the player runs himself, for example.

Hm, ok. maybe there's some more trickery we need to do...
