Description

System Information
Operating system: Windows-10-10.0.18362 64 Bits (win10 1903)

Laptop with AltGr key and keyboard layout that uses AltGr to type special characters "Polski (programisty)"

Blender Version
Broken: version: 2.80 and 2.7x>

Short description of error
AltGr is detected as Right Control+Right Alt, so shortcuts with Right_Alt dont work properly eg. Right Alt+m

Longer description with debugevents
single pressing AltGr with --debug-events:

wm_event_do_handlers: Handling event

         shift:0, ctrl:1, alt:0, oskey:0, keymodifier:0,

If i press AltGr, and then click on Ctrl it is detecting just Alt

"Keyboard Test Utility" program correctly recognizes rightalt alone

If i register shortcut via python to Right_alt it is working on release

I don't know if this is hardware specific or windows 10 1903 update issue.

I can confirm this behavior on 2 machines with Win10.
Right Alt worked as expected until Windows Update in September.

I've found wierd repro.

  1. Hide Object with H
  2. Press H + AltGr = nothing happens
  3. Hold AltGr > press H > press Ctrl > press H = Object shows up (like Alt+H was pressed)
