    A question about the keyboard layout.

    Dear railway friends!

    Unfortunately, I have to say that all keyboard commands assigned to the keys on the number pad do not work. There are also other keys or key combinations that do not work.

    Can anyone tell me why this might be?

    Thank you in advance for your answers.

    Often when reading about the problem in forum threads the solution is that some other program has captured parts of the keyboard for its' own use. Have you checked out other programs on your machine with keyboard shortcuts?

      Also make sure that your numLock is actually turned on. My newest keyboard no longer has a light for numLock, and it is turned off by default at boot-up.

        Also - what kind of keyboard are you using? Labtops tend to have a 'function key' that's needed to make some of the functions work that on a standard keyboard are sperate keys, and my gamer came with a "gaming" keyboard that was even worse. Would have needed four hands to work the key combinations for OR. Needless to say it's in storage and I'm using an older regular keyboard.
