Hi,
I'm writing to describe an issue which, even if small, is a real pain in the … for me.
I'm not able to write the graph parentheses “{ }” anywhere in the HD interface. Ofc I can do that anywhere else in win7 (64b) I'm currently using.
Nor shift+altgr+è (qwerty italian keyboard) nor ctrl+shift+alt+è work (alt+123) neither).
Anyone else experiencing the same?
What to do?

uhm…38 views and no reply.
Maybe no one else is meeeting this problem?

Change to us international keys during your houdini session?

lol!

Had this as well. For me it's the default Windows7 keyboard. I set my country to Canada and low and behold it gave me a French keyboard layout!!!! And it continued to reset to French Keyboard each and every time I booted up win7 after changing it to US keyboard which is what Houdini is designed around.

By the fourth or fifth time changing back to a US keyboard in that tiny keyboard icon in the left hand side of the toolbar, it finally stuck.
