How to report when key used for two purposes

I am trying to set up a prototype for a Return To Deck operation. The key I have assigned is CTRL R. I also want to report to the chat window whenever a Return to Deck operation has occured. I added two traits to my prototype, a report action and a return to deck trait. If I assign the CTRL R key to both traits, only the return to deck works and I get no report. If I assign a different key to the Report Action trait, such as CTRL P for instance, the CTRL P does report to the chat window and CTRL R does return the piece to the deck, but I need for one key to do both simultaneously.

Is there a way to do this?

Solved my problem… Had to use a trigger action to send two keys.

Use a trigger action trait
Listen for Ctrl P
Execute Ctrl R
