The default key bindings that are pre-set are located by clicking on the 'Main Menu' key on the Menu Bar, selecting 'User Settings' then the tab for 'Key Bindings'.

You may select either the KR or Legacy Default Bindings. (Legacy bindings will be automatically be selected if you have selected Legacy Chat mode in the interface screen and elect to use the legacy bindings when you make the change, you may select yes or no to do this.) Note: if electing to use the legacy chat with key bindings then your keyboard will become as per a normal keyboard and any letters you type will appear as letters, so setting macros to these keys, ie a, b, c, d, e etc will not only trigger the macro but type the letter as per what currently happens in the 2d client. If the KR chat is selected then any key maybe used for macros without it also typing the letter when the macro is initiated, however you will need to type <enter> when speaking.

There is a description of the 'actions' available and the key/s to press to perform these actions. eg) to open your backpack the default is 'I' or to toggle for war mode it is 'W'.

You may change any of the default key settings to whatever keys you prefer by:

Highlight (line turns yellow) the key binding you wish to change by <LEFT> clicking on the Action part, then press the keys you wish that action to perform on. eg) if you wish to open your backpack with <ctrl>b rather than the the default key "I", then highlight that action line and press <ctrl>b and it will change the default. Once you have made any changes you want, click apply and OK to leave the menu.

Note: changing the key bindings on one character in an account changes them on ALL characters in that account so be mindful of this when changing them.

Hints

Pressing <Esc> will clear the current binding to a blank space so will remove any binding set for that action.
To change or delete a key binding in a hotbar or macro, right clicking on the icon and selecting assign key will do the same function.
Some other default keybindings are discussed here: Miscellaneous Desktop Features

-* Enable UI Scaling: when checked 'on' the slider enables you to alter the size off all the UI features.  This means that all hotbars, chat screen, opening gumps are reduced in size as a percentage of the default setting.  The setting maybe changed to anywhere from 50-99% of default size.  Remember that the written 'text' is also altered in size so the lower settings may drastically affect the size of text you see while giving you more room on the screen to set gumps etc. By altering the setting to your preference, the UI change can be very good to maximize the use of your game screen but ensure you make it 'readable'.  You just need to find the best UI setting for yourself by experimenting.  <br><br>
