Describe the Bug
Hello all, I'm using an ErgoDash v1 keyboard with QMK_SYS v1.2.0 and QMK Toolbox v0.3.3 on Windows 11.
I've recently updated my keymap.json to simplify it and (some) macros have stopped working or are working in a strange way in some places.
For example, the QK_MACRO_6 for printing tilde (~) using Windows Alt Codes works here, as you can see, and also in LibreOffice Writer and in browser (LibreWolf) address bar but prints ► in Notepad++ and Windows Notepad, that never did. (I'm using Cascadia Code font, in Notepad++, and copy-pasting the ~ I can see the ~ properly, but the macro prints that weird triangle.)
At the same time, some other macros Alt Codes-based like QK_MACRO_0 (À) and so on, are working in some (most) environments (here on the web while creating this issue, LibreOffice, ...) and are instead doing nothing in Notepad++ or Windows Notepad.
I even restored older versions of my keymap (e.g. "version 10", that I'm sure were working fine, and they have the same weird behaviour.
I'm still on QMK Toolbox 0.3.3 since a while. Today I updated QMK_SYS (from 1.1.8) hoping it would've helped, but the issue remains.
Hints?
