Certain Numbers/Symbols Won't Type

Post by G_W1Z
When typing in a UR or on a HN, certain numbers or symbols will not work. For example, I cannot type out the numbers 1, 2, or 3 in a HN or UR. If I open a new tab in Chrome and type those numbers, they work fine. I have seen this happen with the exclamation point symbol (!).

You are correct, it was the WME Conext Menu script. I had that enabled and went and disabled it and those number keys work now.

For what it's worth, I use at home a Lenovo laptop and at work I use a Logitech G610 Orion Brown Backlit Mechanical Gaming Keyboard.

Understood. Thanks!

Do you have the same problem with native WME (no scripts/extensions). I believe WME context menu was causing that issue for a while (or maybe still is, I'm not sure).

I cannot reproduce.. Have you tried using those keys elsewhere than in WME lately? Are you sure that it might not be a keyboard issue?

Or does anyone else have the same problem?
