How to use Arrow Key for MenuItem Hotkey

Question

I want to use Alt + ↑ or Alt + ↓ .

&U (Alt + U) works fine.

But

&UP
_UP
%#&UP

are not working.

And other special keys (e.g. PGUP) also not working.

cf. https://learn.unity.com/tutorial/editor-scripting#5c7f8528edbc2a002053b5f9

These are the supported keys (can also be combined together):

 % – CTRL on Windows / CMD on OSX
 # – Shift
 & – Alt
 LEFT/RIGHT/UP/DOWN – Arrow keys
 F1…F2 – F keys
 HOME, END, PGUP, PGDN

How can I try for using Alt + ↑/↓ ?

Alright so I'm trying to make a menu of quick shortcuts for a bunch of operations that are slightly less used, so I can never remember the shortcuts but the layer I use to switch ijkl to arrow keys doesn't respond in the menu. but my actual arrow keys work just fine for navigating the menu.

Menu Code:

OptionsMenu(){

 Menu, MainMenu, Add
 Menu, MainMenu, Add
 Menu, MainMenu, deleteAll
 Menu, MainMenu, Add, Google, menuGoogle
 Menu, MainMenu, Add, Google with prefix, menuGoogle2      
 Menu, AppMenu, Add, Calculator, menuCalculator
 Menu, MainMenu, Add, Apps, :AppMenu

 Menu, MainMenu, Show
 ControlFocus, MainMenu, menuGoogle, MainMenu
 return
 menuGoogle:
     Google1()
     return
 menuGoogle2:
     Google2(clip())
     return
 menuCalculator:
     Run, Calc.exe
     return

}

arrow key code:

RAlt::F13 #if GetKeyState("F13") { i:: Up j:: Left k:: Down l:: Right

 return

}

if

My arrow key shortcut works everywhere else, so I'm pretty confused by this. Thanks for at least taking the time to read this post!
