Post From: ChartValuesWindow for Bar doesn't change with Left/Right keys only mouse movement

Support, I was on 2098 and downloaded and now running latest prerelease - 2101 to try. I get the same results. Keyboard arrows do not cause the Chart Values for Tools to change as the chart scrolls. I do realize this is not a support / defect issue, but if someone could suggest what to try to determine the cause, it would be nice to have this capability.
- I have looked at a utility that comes with Logitech and I do not have any keyboard assignment set.
- Tried using the numberpad arrows with the numlock off, same no good results.
- Deleted and reloaded my mouse and keyboard drivers.
- Run with and without Logitech SetPoint utility.
- Tried 2 keyboards, one generic and one Logitech.

- I am going to read up on AutoHotKey, (it's been a while since I last used it) and make Alt-'arrow' emulate mouse movement left
& right.

I was able to create a script in AutoHotKey that emulated the left and right scrolling of the mouse. Not sure why my system some sort of VooDoo-DooDoo, but this works so, on to the next thing.

Here it is if others are interested.

#NoEnv ; Recommended for performance and compatibility with future AutoHotkey releases.
; #Warn ; Enable warnings to assist with detecting common errors.
SendMode Input ; Recommended for new scripts due to its superior speed and reliability.
SetWorkingDir %A_ScriptDir% ; Ensures a consistent starting directory.

^Left::
MouseMove, -3,0,0,R
return

^Right::
MouseMove, 3,0,0,R
return

Thanks in advance for anyone's time to try to help.
