When I hit shift or cntrl it auto cycles to that hotkey page. With icons though I can put a lot more talents on one screen (and I prefer to use shift as my primary back up instead of cntrl so I have to rebind all of those).
Anyway it would be nice if pressing shift or cntrl and having it pull up the secondary hotkeys was something that could be rebound or turned off. It's annoying to hit shift and watch all my talent icons disappear (because I rebound all my shift keys to the second hotkey page to make them visible.)
SVN Rebinding the auto-hotkey display

Re: SVN Rebinding the auto-hotkey display
Pressing shift makes your first 24 icons disappear even when you don't have anything bound to the shift range. I think the best fix would be to pull up a new page only when there's actually a talent present in those "hidden" slots.
Re: SVN Rebinding the auto-hotkey display
Yeah, I agree this system needs updated. I primarily use mnemonics (like "I" for illuminate, "[shift]-I" for identify, etc) and convenient key locations (such as "asdf" and nearby keys, where my left hand sits). Neither the hotkey number shown on the talents nor the shift/control auto-paging is helpful to me at all. So, a few suggestions:
Add a new keybinding that, when pressed, toggles to expands (or contract) the lower drawer to show all available talents icons. Allow easy keyboard navigation too.
Show the actual key-bindings on the talent icons (and in the "m" screen) instead of just the hotkey. "[C] + 6", as is shown now, is worse than useless to me: it's confusing. If you need to use more than one corner of the talent icon, then do it. If you need to simplify key codes like "[shift]+[ctrl]+Y" to "sc-Y" for display purposes, then do that too.
Perhaps key-bindings, hotkeys, or both could be shown on or below the talent icons when the bottom drawer is expanded.
Add support for more than 36 hotkeys.
