Currently, as of 12/10/22, there is a UI selection feature that is toggled by pressing the backslash key on PC : New Keybinds for Keyboard Navigation
This feature, while useful for people with disabilities and non-standard hardware layouts, is problematic to people that do not need the feature. When playing games, I am often hitting my enter key for various in-game actions. However, because the backslash key enables the UI selection mode, I’m often accidentally enabling it mid-game because my backslash key is right above my enter key. This is very annoying and it often gets me killed and whatnot in various games.
There should be an option to disable the UI selection mode from the escape menu, just like you can with shiftlock. It’s a great feature, but it is not always desirable to have it enabled since it’s very easy to accidentally enable it.
I also have issues with this, the fact that this isn’t togglable is surprising given it’s focus within the company to implement.
We will have to rely on third party programs to disable this hotkey, such as AutoHotkey. Due to it being below the backspace button, it’s easily hit when typing a chat message in game without realizing.
This is definitely a feature that needs a little more attention to be great. Please make this togglable.
This is still a problem as of March 2023. Any time I forget to disable my backslash key, I end up getting killed because I accidentally enable the feature in the middle of a pvp match.
