Motifs Automatically Being Learned

On 2 occasions, yesterday morning and this morning, I received a motif from an anniversary box after turning in a writ. I open the anniversary box, see what the contents are, press R to Take All, my inventory automatically pulls up, I see that the motif is there, I press Alt to exit my inventory. On these 2 occasions when I pressed Alt to exit inventory, the motif was automatically learned. This is only a problem for me because both times it happened, I was not on my character that had everything learned. Anyone else experiencing this?

    I have not experienced this on PC/NA. If you have add-ons, maybe check their settings to make sure nothing is causing that?

    I ruled out an Add-On being the issue as these same characters have received other motifs during this event in which this issue did not occur. I was able to put other motifs in the bank so my motif character could learn them. Thank you for your reply.

    I doubt this matters at all but the 2 motifs that we’re automatically learned were Mazzatun Daggers and Worm Cult Axes. Also both times was in Vivec City at the writ turn in location.

    That method does not rule out an addon causing this, because the same addon could have different on different character.

    Another option is that you may have a key sticking a bit and the game registering a double tap.

    I’m not sure what you mean. As I stated earlier, these characters have received other motifs in which this did not happen. Are you saying that an Add-On maybe randomly causing this?

    As for the keys sticking, I always right click the motif and then select USE. The key I used right before these occurrences was the ALT key.

    I have done this too on a mule char by pressning E twice in a row. It sucks but its a fault on my end so i just had to take the hit. For me it was mercenary belts though.

    I think they mean the settings for that addon might be slightly different from one character to another. I use the Lazy Writ Crafter, so some settings I have to set individually on each character or else some characters loot the reward boxes and others don't, for example.

    Thank you everyone for the responses. I’ll definitely be more cautious and check add-ons.

    I accidentally learned a motif on an alt by double pressing E, meant to open an anniversary box but the motif replaced its spot at the top of the inventory list. Luckily it was only one worth 4k so I just bought another for my main crafter. Now I'm more cautious.
