[General] Reforged Issue #1

[xorkatoss]

Alright guys as many of you know reforged launch has been terrible and of course a lot of people are complaining.

I don't care that much about the problems, in fact I'm excited for the launch since it's a huge graphical upgrade and the new UI natives have been awesome for me.

I also made a thread some time ago addressing some issues and my experience with reforged.

Now some other problems have come to light and I need help if there is a possible fix.

My current problem is that all abilities now have their hotkeys shown next to their title:

Spoiler: Long List of Images

My problem is that I use different colors for spells to match each hero.
In this case I want the hotkeys to be colored white but the default blizzard yellow color pops up and ruins everything >_<


So I am asking if anybody knows is a way to prevent the hotkey from showing.

EDIT:
well since nobody has a solution I suppose a fix doesn't exist, I deleted all the hotkeys and left only the blizzard auto-generated hotkeys.

Following. I'd like to remove the hotkey text from passive abilities. I mean, really Blizzard? Looks so amateuristic.

 

[xorkatoss]

hmm? you sure passive abilities have hotkeys?

because:

unless you are referring to learn hotkeys?

 

[Rahko]

Well, I use the grid setting and it does give all buttons the hotkey text.

And how would this work with the player using custom hotkeys?

I think the correct solution is to remove your baked in hotkeys from the tooltips and just let Blizzard manage it. That way if someone remaps Z to Y because they are European they have the correct hotkeys showing in the tooltips. StarCraft II also uses automatic hotkey display for this reason.

European?

Other solution is to localize the object editor data, so you keep control over the visual appearance of your tooltips.

 

[Dr Super Good]

European?

Sorry I grew up in Switzerland so I assumed it was more common throughout Europe than it actually is.

Localization still does not solve the issue of users customizing hotkeys.

@Dr Super Good custom hotkeys apply to custom spells as well? Never really bothered to setup my own hotkeys because I only play custom games.
And my problem now isn't actually that it shows the hotkey, the problem is the colored letter, if I could make it white instead of yellow then it would solve my problem.
