Hello,

I think that BG is the only application on this world that added some really annoying "confirmation of closing application via using ALT+F4 key combination" - It was annoying 10 years ago and It is annoying now. If you want to sustain this "Boo will miss you" dialog, please add option to disable it. See next post.

The bug: strange characters when using Polish Language

    Well, this dialog window should be disabled by default for "ALT+F4" key combination. I know that there will be some people who would love to see it, so please disable it by default and add an option to enable it in baldur.ini

    I disagree, right now this is the only way (that I know of) that I can alt+tab (or cmd+tab on mac) my way out of BG:EE to my desktop. If it's turned of then the app will quit. It's better to have it annoying people and let them look for a change than to let people think that there's no way to tab out of BG:EE

    @Vintrastorm On MacOS, you can also use alt+enter to switch to windows mode and then cmd-tab your way out to another app, can't you?

    Yes you can, I just found out a couple of hours ago by trying different combinations. This info should be included somewhere.
