Voice-of-Shadow According to Nate, the inability to specify '+' was indeed a bug. I apologize for my earlier misjudgment regarding this issue. The fix has already been completed internally and will be included in the next patch version release.
Please note the following when configuring hotkeys:
Keys specified as typed characters (such as '+') and named keys (such as PLUS or EQUALS) may correspond to the same physical key, depending on the keyboard layout.
On many keyboard layouts, the = and + characters are produced by the same physical key, with + generated by holding the Shift key while pressing =. As a result, PLUS, EQUALS, and the typed character '+' can be interpreted as the same key input internally.
In such cases, named keys take priority over typed characters during hotkey evaluation. This means that if a named key (for example, PLUS or EQUALS) is mapped to the same physical key and modifier combination as a typed character, the hotkey using the typed character may not work as expected.
Please also note that PLUS and EQUALS are used by default in existing hotkey assignments.
In the default hotkeys, the following actions are mapped to these keys:
- Draw Order Up: PLUS
- Draw Order Up (5): Shift + PLUS
- Draw Order Up: EQUALS
- Draw Order Up (5): Shift + EQUALS
Because of these default mappings, attempts to assign hotkeys using '+' or combinations such as Shift + '+' may not work as expected unless the existing hotkeys that use PLUS or EQUALS are reassigned to different keys first.
This behavior is not specific to the + character. The same principle applies to other typed characters, such as ';', and to any key where a typed character and a named key represent the same physical key input.
