How do I make this pop up stop appearing every time I make a new Gradient Map Layer with shortcut?

Hi!

 

This has long been a problem for me. I used to work around it on my old macro pad by having the macro hit enter after the keyboard shortcut, but my new macro pad doesn't seem to allow that.

 

Anytime I use my keyboard shortcut for Layer > Layer Adjustment > Gradient Map I get a pop up that I don't need at all, I just need the gradient map layer to go into the file. For my work I make a zillion Gradient Maps a day so this is an extremely annoying situation.

 

I'm using CC 25.11, windows 11 if it matters?

 

I have seen plenty of threads addressing for just making a new layer, but none of that seems to apply for this adjustment layer creation.

 

Hopefully my screen recording posts so that people can see what I mean.

Have you tried recording an action to create a gradient map adjustment layer and then assigning a keyboard shortcut to play that action? It's easy to record this single-step action.
