ALT-Click doesn't work

As units gain heroes I like to upgrade +1 movement infantry to Pioneers. Normally this is done during deployment phase when it's possible to ALT-Click a unit, go to the Battle History tab, and mouse over the hero portraits to see their benefits. This doesn't work with the DLC beta. When I hit ALT-Click nothing happens.

Hmmm, Alt+Click is working for me.

And me. Where are you Alt-Clicking? I could do it in the deployment screen - I assume elsewhere, too.

Turn off window mode.

Alt+click does not work during deployment phase while you are in window mode.
Documented bug:

15. While in window mode Alt+Click to access detailed unit information on the unit list toggles (f6 and f8 ) no longer functions.

I toggled between 1 and 2 button mouse interfaces and the problem seems to have corrected itself. I am now able to ALT-click to see Battle History during the deployment phase.

I do believe there was a problem before as ALT-click (either left or right) did nothing for me during the deployment phase. Should this occur again I'll let you know.

I run the latest version of Windows 7 64-bit on a Radeon 5790 with the 11-8 drivers. I play in 2560x1600.

Ahh I see what happened. The Window Mode button was not checked but the game was in fact running in Window Mode because of the gray border around the edges. When I toggled from 1 to 2 button mouse interface, the game reset to full screen mode.

I'm not sure why the game was running in Window Mode without the box being checked. Perhaps I set it that way a while back ...

Another thing I noticed is that if you ALT-TAB to another program and come back, the ALT-click function doesn't work. Just confirmed it while typing this message.
