Renaming units and hotkeys

[Letar]

I like to map a few keys to different map modes etc. The problem is that when I do this and try to rename unit I can't use key eg. mapped to political mapmode because when I press this key it doesn't give the letter but changes mapmode to political.

Example: I have assigned p to political mapmode, so I can't rename existing division to anything which includes p.

Are hotkeys officially unsupported or is this a bug?

So anybody else hasn't noticed this? Is anyone even using hotkeys?

So ALL hotkeys are doing this? I can type a P no problem

are there hotkeys in this game????...and where can a list of those be found ?.....I usually rename the divisions manually(and the armies)but have discovered when playing Germany that the only German letter I can use is ä everything else brings up either save game(which I now use as a hotkey...LOL) or something else.

Yes certain signs are still unsupported... Provide me a list and I'll log it. Signs like ä ï and such as well pls

 

[birch23]

well ä can be written but not the following:

ö,ü, and I believe these â,è, and that Spanish snake symbol...
which I seem unable to use here too.... you kow the one above for instance hasta manana

Remapping of keys is not offically supported, as all and any Mods to the game are not. However you may want to try using all caps when naming units, this should solve your problem.

True enough, but even without remapping, some buttons are unsupported... Would be nice to have 'em supported.
