Hi Paul, This isn't helpful, but I've found the same problem since upgrading to 7.2, and am just as disconcerted by it as you are. FYI, you don't have to hold down shift to activate the plus sign, if you press the equals key, right next to the backspace key, it will act as a plus sign in the calculator. I hope the semicolon comes back as the plus sign in the next incarnation of Keyplus.

This worked fine until I upgraded to 7.2.
