Please could we have the ability to rebind the open chat input key? I frequently hit the (baked in) return key by mistake when reaching for RShift to hold position. This modal locks me, preventing casting, healing, and movement.
I am sure there are plenty of other players out there who would appreciate this option, not only left handed players like me. A keybind that opens a modal preventing avatar control in combat really needs to be player assignable. Thanks!
I know that it can be frustrating when certain things are not re-bindable. A work-around for now could be to rebind what commands you can so that they are not using keys near Enter. That itself can be a bit frustrating at times, if it may mean rebinding other things because of their previous bindings. I’m right handed, and my left hand is “clumsy” to put it nicely. So, I could see how a left-handed individual might have similar problem with their right hand. Personally, I find using a controller for most things to be more efficient, and just fall back on the keyboard/mouse for stuff like menus, town interactions, etc. Stuff that’s more clunky to do with controller.
I know there are workarounds, I could create a custom keyboard profile and rebind my return key to KP_Enter but its not the ideal solution.
I meant from the in-game options menus. I wouldn’t have the slightest idea how to make a keyboard profile.
+1 This. As a left-handed person who uses the right side of the keyboard, I am really sick of dying or nearly dying because I accidentally open the chat window in combat. It is not comfortable for me to use the default key area with my right hand, even if I did want to.
Having chat locked to enter and bound to both enter and KP enter is utterly obnoxious. Having all keys rebindable is an accessibility option in itself. Clearly no-one at blizz has thought about this issue for more than about 10 seconds when deciding to make certain keybindings locked.
