That's not easy and is not a solution.

For Ctrl, I would either have to re-bind every single other game and program
that uses Left Ctrl as well, or automate swapping back and forth when Overwatch
is running and closing.

Fort Alt that's even worse because [Left] Alt has nothing to do with AltGr
(Right Alt), at least on Hungarian keyboard. The former is used in function
shortcuts while the latter is used to access special characters on the keyboard
so I couldn't even Alt-Tab out of the game normally if it's swapped, not to
mention that AltGr is still used for typing in the Overwatch chat.

I guess this workaround is better than nothing, but it's not a very good one.


Any idea how could I automate it? I assume the initial swap can be added to the
shortcut I start the Blizz app with, but any way to automatically swap back
when Overwatch is closed?
