Noted, but this is an issue about playing nice with _KEYDOWN(), which it does until you hold down the cursor key combo arrow up and arrow left. That's the combo that blocks it, _KEYHIT, or even _KEYDOWN(32) from being registered when those two arrow keys are held down. So, it's not really an INKEY$ issue. Also, if we change that CHR$(32) to something else like CHR$(9) then it works with all eight directional arrow keys (4 single and 4 double) combinations. I see no reason this same functioning shouldn't work with the space bar key since it does work with other third key presses like Tab. I'm with Rho on this one, bug! It's a shame, too, since QB64 added keyboard statements were the first breakthrough in detecting more than a two-key event. Maybe an alert should be placed in the Wiki to this regard, if it is not fixable in time?
