I actually didn't know about this feature, but now that I do and it explains a lot of "mysterious" hot-key changes I have experienced over the months.

There has been so many new changes with UI Options in every patch. (For eg in patch 1.2 you can show hotkeys on button, in patch 1.1 you can toogle the clock. If this get to their attention this will be easily patched.

really +1 here about this too, I have it happen to me quite a bit when I play, and coupled with the fact that my graphics+cpu aren't up to...speed with the game...makes it even more annoying

I totally hate this as well. Nothing like accidently a few units to your hatcheries and suddenly not being able to select larva quickly or queen inject on the fly.

I have done this a few times and until recently I had no idea what was going on, then I realized I was right clicking the hotkey icon. Definitely needs a toggle.

I just started playing zerg a few weeks ago and noticed random hotkey changes during games and was wondering wtf was going on. This seems like a stupid feature. Completely unnecessary, Blizzard. I hope they see this thread.
good vibes only

So that's how I end up with totally retarded control groups in the middle of the game. I honestly can't understand why this feature is in the game. I suppose it functions as controls groups for people who don't even use the keyboard, why the fuck do we need this?

For the new player it's a good intro to control groups, but it should DEFINITELY be toggleable. It's sometimes nice to see what you ahve (unit counts etc) but maybe they could have three modes?

1) invisible
2) visible but unclickable
3) visible and clickable.

I'd be content with these three options. The ability to open up the space completely would be nice as well.

Hah I did a double take the first time I went to reply to make sure I wasn't hopping on one of those dead and gone thread revivals.

So that's what it is... was wondering why sometimes I had to rebind all my hatcheries because all of a sudden my mutas were bound to it... figured I'd accidently been overwriting my 4 hotkey in some way... but this is most likely it. Can be very annoying at times.. :x

agreed. happens to me all the time..

i wish they would move the "help" and "options" tabs at the top or give the option to hide them.. so many times i am trying to box units and left click the "options" or "help" tabs.

Not sure why this hasn't been changed yet. New players don't even know about this functionality, so it's just both really pointless and annoying. It's one of those tiny changes that should have already made it into a patch (along with a health bar toggle on ALT, as opposed to having to hold it down).

You can't hide them, but you can already make them unclickable. Check your options.
