I have no idea but I’d like to know too.

Are they not just keyboard shortcuts? 

Best regards,

They are Helipads.  The letter is an "H".

That's my story and I'm stickin' with it.

A screenshot would have helped, instead of turning it into a guessing game

I assume this is an example of what the OP is talking about.

Keyboard short cuts for what? I restarted the sim to try one of the shortcuts, and now I can't find any. The example I posted above is no longer there for some reason.  Is there something that turns them on and off?
