Number 9 Key no longer works to toggle

[DWReese]

Number 9 Key no longer seems to work to toggle between Group and Unit. The "V" and "PgUp" work fine. (Maybe I've worn mine out.) <lol>

Have you tried using the numberlock key?

[DWReese]

Thanks for the tip, but that isn't the problem.

I also loaded CMANO and successfully used the Number 9 key there to toggle back and forth, so it apparently isn't my keyboard.

If others are having no trouble, then it must be something on my end.

I know I'm not having any trouble.

Hi Doug,

Just tried the "Page Up", #9 key with B1127 and it grouped/un-grouped as it always has for me. Unfortunately, I don't know why or what to suggest for your situation.

Wayne,

Yes, the PageUp works fine. It's just something weird.

As I said, I ended CMO and immediately started the same scenario in CMANO and was able to use the Number 9 key (and Page Up, as well). I then went back to CMO and tried it again, and while page Up continued to work, the Number 9 key continued to NOT WORK. (Note: the Number 9 key has no problems typing Number 9 in this message, so I don't think that that is the issue, either. <lol>

I'm not going to worry about it for now. I'm sure that the devs have lots to do. But, so far, this release looks real good.

I just had exactly the same thing happen to me.

The Numpad '9' was working fine then I got a popup message that the Autosave had failed and the game then switched to unit mode and would not go back to group mode.

I tried shutting down and restarting etc. I tried the alternate Hotkey for Group mode (V) and that worked. Numpad '9' does not work anymore for that scenario but it did before the incident.

Save attached.

It's a guess but I believe that this was an issue before today's update because Vulcan607 was having a similar problem and was asking me about it.

[DWReese]

Thanks, Gunner.

I knew that I wasn't crazy. It worked for other things so it should work here. Something must have happened to cause it, but it is beyond my pay grade to figure it out. As you said, the "V" and the page Up still work, so something must have been corrupted.

* FIXED: Raw-text mode message log window was stealing focus from main map window every time it was refreshed, and was not properly forwarding hotkey presses. (If you notice the same issue in any other window, please do alert us).

I think that this might be the culprit as the hotkey code was updated and '9' might have been missed.

I'll log it for investigation.
