Yes this does work for us. No problems. This could not be a version specific issue.

Will keep looking on my end. ctrl-alt-A brings up Alert Manager as expected, but no luck with ctrl-alt-M for Manage Chart Drawings. appreciate the reply.

EDIT: still searching for the culprit, but making this ctrl-alt-shift-M works as expected, so unsure what is eating the ctrl-alt-M when Sierra is active, but I do have a workaround/solution for the immediate issue.

Update / Solution:
I found the cause of Ctrl+Alt+M not working for the Manage Chart Drawings Window.

The key combo was actually captured globally by NVIDIA ShadowPlay Helper (nvsphelper64.exe) — it registers Ctrl+Alt+M as a system-wide hotkey for microphone toggle.

After disabling or changing this shortcut in GeForce Experience → Settings → Keyboard Shortcuts, Ctrl+Alt+M works perfectly in Sierra Chart again.

So if anyone else runs into the same issue, check your NVIDIA ShadowPlay settings.
