You can program the Shuttle components to perform repeated pressure (or hold down) of the
modifier keys. The Smart Release checkbox enables a software optimization of these repeated
keystrokes in order to optimize application performance.
However, this optimization may interfere with some applications, usually games, that have a
particular specialized use of the modifier keys. In those cases you can disable the Smart
Release feature.
