Can`t use numpad keys properly

[douglasdandrade]

Hi,

I use a laptop that have a numpad and the Pgdn, PgUp and Home keys are on it, and I can use them by just pressing NumLock. Looks just like the one attached. 

But the arma 2 don`t recognize them, it sees the keys as 3, 9 and 7 doesn`t matter the NumLock activated or not.

I know that the problem is the arma 2 because I can`t bind any of the keys on the Options>Controls menu. I`ve already took the steam community overlay off and tried lots of things, but the problem persist.

It`s a very very annoying problem because I can`t build properly.

Thanks in advance.

No ideas whatsoever?

Tried to switch the language input to english, tried to use the windows On-screen Keyboard to input the keys. I've thought that it would be a problem with my kind of keyboard, and the game doesn't accept its inputs or anything like it, and I tried to change the windows assignment of another key to pagedown for a test. Neither of it worked.

I've ran out of ideas, but I'll not give up. :D

Do you have a Fn key on your laptop? Try holding that down and pressing the pg up/pg down buttons.

I kinda solved my problem, got an external keyboard and it worked good. So the problem is how the game "sees" the keys I'm pressing.

I'd still prefer to use my laptop keyboard but it's a solution. 

Just replying so other people that might have this problem can find this workaround.

Yea Flosstradamus, I tried to use the Fn keys but it didn't work, nor the Alt, AltGr or Ctrl keys.
