Assigned hotkeys triggering wrong shortcuts

I have a very strange problem I can't figure out the cause of:

1. I have mapped hotkeys to my 3 Trade Window Configurations. I have tried many keys, it makes no difference which ones, but for now they are SHIFT-F2, SHIFT-F3, and SHIFT-F4. These work fine.
2. I have mapped the SHIFT-D19 key to toggle the "Hide Pending Attached Orders" function. This works fine.
3. The problem is that when I hit the hotkey for Trading Window Configuration #1, it will disable the Hide Pending Attached Orders function. If I press the hotkeys for Trade Window Configuration #2 or #3, it will re-enable the Hide Pending Attached Orders function.

I can easily see this taking place since I have created a floating Control bar with the relevant buttons on it. No matter what keys I map the Trade Window Configurations to, they always exhibit this behavior in the same way.

I can make a video documenting this if it is helpful, but maybe this is enough information to go on. This has been giving me problems for a week or so (since I started mapping keyboard shortcuts) but I did not make the connection in my mind until just now.

The problem is that "Hide Pending Attached Orders" is saved with Trade Window configurations. So you need to resave your configurations, with the state of this option set as you require.
