This bug occurs because of my following key mappings:

VIEW
Toggle View = NUM+ENTER, NUM+'.' key
Tactical View = NUM+'.' key

I've had to work around a dysfunctional NUM+ENTER key on my keyboard, and guessing the NUM+ENTER key might have broke due to over use. As such, the best workaround aside from buying a new $100 keyboard (for which is still always going to type worse than a 1980's era electric typewriter), was to remap and make use of the NUM+'.' key.

Funny, I see no other conflicts or usage of this NUM+'.', so I don't know why I'm getting this bug. But unmapping/deleting the default mapping of the NUM+'.' key from the Tactical View function solves or works around this bug.

VIEW
Toggle View = NUM+ENTER, NUM+'.' key
Tactical View =

I'm going to close this bug because this looks like the expected behavior, but I have no ability or permissions to close.
