Hot Key Questions

Post by scout1 »

I've read of heard about
[or] and [and}

How do you actually invoke these ? I'm unfamiliar on how to do this .....

Perhaps you mean what hotkeys do what?

Like M for example that changes a Air Units / Naval Unit mission or changes a land unit from hold to normal?

You can not "create" hotkeys...Just some exist.

the hot key list has "[or]" as a hot key .... I have no idea what sequence of keystrokes I need to get "[or]" ...

Thats my question .... I understand "M" or "Alt M" or "Control M" ..... not "[or]" ......

Yes it is for the UI scaling. Where is it confusing? In game or the manual?

So just a question.... the "+ or -" hotkey description in the manual did not confuse you correct? ;)

Correct, they did not confuse me .... + and - are typical hot keys ....."[" and "]" are not .... again, may be as simple as me not putting 2 and 2 together .....
