Calling The Destroy Method On A PluginAction Does Not Remove It From The Shortcuts Menu

When a script deletes a PluginAction, I expect that the shortcut is also deleted from the Studio shortcuts menu, but it is not.

Reproduction Steps:

  1. Create a script with the following code
local newPluginAction = plugin:CreatePluginAction(
	"testPlugin",
	"StudioActionsBugTest",
	"",
	"",
	true
)

newPluginAction.Triggered:Connect(function()
	warn("Test action triggered!")
end)

for index = 30, 1, -1 do
	print(index)
	task.wait(1)
end

newPluginAction:Destroy()
  1. Open the output/make it visible

Heads up for step 3: Upon saving this script as a local plugin, you will have 30 seconds to open the shortcuts menu (File > Advanced > Customize Shortcuts…) and assign a keybind to the shortcut “StudioActionsBugTest”. Once you have done that, close the menu and activate the shortcut a couple times.

  1. Right-click the script and save it as a local plugin

  2. Follow the steps described in the heads up

  3. Wait until the countdown ends

  4. Notice that when the PluginAction is deleted you will no longer see a message printed in the output when you trigger the keybind

  5. Reopen the shortcuts menu and look for the shortcut again. It should still be there.
