hello it is me again.  items on the map that it is possible to interact with show as 'blue highlighted' on the map whenever the mouse cursor is placed over them.  when I played this game 18 months ago I remember there was a way to make those items automatically show on the map by way of a keyboard command, but I cannot remember what keys had to be pressed.  it was not a 'cheat code', it was just a standard keyboard command (or possibly a combination of 2 keys or keyboard + mouse button).  Pressing the keys would make the items show on the map, when the keys were released the items would not show.  Can someone remind me what combination of keys had to be pressed to achieve that effect.  Thanks.

The Tab only works in BGII, and Tutu or BGT and other engine convertion mods, but not in BG1 or BG1:TotSC...
