How to useitem hotkey with Alt and prevent Object Preview

[Darkman309]

Just got into trying out MQ as a solo player to get a feel for it, but running into an issue with the Alt key behavior.
Without MQ running I can make an in game macro, place it on say, Alt+W and it will correctly click the item.

/useitem "Item Name"

With MQ running if I press Alt+W it just brings up the Object Preview for the item instead, just like it would if I placed an item shortcut there.
Any guidance here on why the behavior is different/ how to modify it would be greatly appreciated

i am unsure you are doing this correct, are you on emu? or live server?

because calling a social with a hotkey should not activate the preview window with mq or not.

because how is it to know which item to preview?

On live server.
The object preview is showing the item in the /useitem quotes.
/useitem "Verdant Hedgerow Leaf"
Without MQ running, clicking the macro button on the bar or using a hotkey with Alt+ both correctly summon and dismiss the mount as expected. If I drag the item shortcut instead of the /useitem macro to an Alt+ hotkey it display the Object Preview.

With MQ running, clicking the button still works as expected, but the Alt+ hotkey opens the Object Preview of the mount instead just like it was clicking the actual item.

If I move the social button to a non Alt+ hotkey it works as expected

weird - it doesn't happen by nature of just /useitem "blah item of blah" so i suspect it is because of your pressing alt when you do the hotkey

you can do something like /nomodkey /useitem "Verdant Hedgerow Leaf" and that should skip

Thank you! /nomodkey did the trick!
