hotkey weirdness

In the action list panel (window on the low right), various abilities get automatically attributed to various keys, ranging from '1' to '='. Now, between '0' and 'EQUAL', there's a mysterious key listed as 'RIGHTPAREN'. The problem is - no matter which key i try, i cannot get to use it. Keys i tried include ')', '}', ']', '-', '_', etc.

Suggestion - can maybe display the right symbol itself, instead of descriptions like 'EQUAL' or 'RIGHTPAREN'?

Sadly I can not :/
But you can rebind the keys to whatever you like, press escape and select the key bindings option

Whatever talent falls in the 'RIGHTPAREN' bin, i sure reassign it to other key. Still, this means effectively one less talent displayed on the talens panel. Can you please elaborate which key was the 'RIGHTPAREN' ment to be? The ')'?

Yes ')'

But no I mean you can just change the key associated with hotkey 11 :)

The UI uses a default QWERTY key mapping. If you're using AZERTY keyboard, you need to remap every non-QWERTY key for them to work: ctrl-a instead of ctrl-q for quests, minus instead of right parenthesis for hotkey 11...

It's not a QWERTY vs. AZERTY issue. The 11th hotkey being RIGHTPAREN is a US vs. French(?) keyboard issue. It's covered in the FAQ.

On a bog standard 104-key US QWERTY Windows keyboard, the remapping is necessary.

What is it on an US keyboard ?

The top row of keys on a US keyboard is ` 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 - =

(Backtick, 1..9, 0, minus, equals.)

Of course I meant the top row of the main part of the keyboard. The row that the hotkeys are supposed to use.

For me it's also minus between 0 and = (PL keyboard).
