Just curious, do you get any console errors?

They could help if it does output anything.

I'm not really sure what to look for, but there are some errors/warnings/messages in the console.

Nothing jumps out to me as being related, but I posted the console log here for what it may help. No errors or messages are created when I click the rotater button, all of them are generated while loading the game.

That's ... a shit load of drops on styling..

But you're right, nothing really stands out so far for me.

Is there a game where this can be tested? hosted or not.

Unknown property 'user-select'. Declaration dropped. play:7
Unknown property 'user-select'. Declaration dropped. play:35
Unknown property 'user-select'. Declaration dropped. play:48

May be useful for Lummox.

Sorry to question your fix, but I'm curious and want to know what the issue actually was!

The svg element that contains the actual icon has pointer-events:none in its style. The div that contains it, and actually receives the click, had no set width or height and was dropping down to zero size. Setting width and height for the div (and the svg, for good measure) fixed the issue.

While I was at it I improved the button code for the control and added a toggle to turn other macro keys on only if they're wanted, so they don't clutter anything visually.

Ahhh I see, awesome stuff.

Thanks for explaining the fix!
