Shortcut keys stop working in ECL IDE
In ECL IDE, Version community_4.0.2-1...
In some cases, at some point, shortcut keys (like Ctrl-F, Ctrl-Enter, Ctrl-G) stop working - the editor accepts the literal value of the key and inserts it into the code.
On a just-fresh load of ECL IDE, even with "busy" workspaces, the shortcut keys seem to work fine at first, but later drop off.
I'm wondering if this is related to a "heavy" environment - busy workspaces (lots of modules/BWR) or even several old workunits for a given module.
I have often switched to a new tab/window, and the keys work fine. Switch back, and they're gone again.
Thanks.

I have not seen a report like this before...
My first hunch (like yours) would have been to limit the number of open Workunits and Editor windows, but it sounds like that didn't help - I would also suggest trying to increase the "auto save" duration to a few minutes?

I have the same issue and it is very annoying. I have found that as soon as I go into the graph of my workunit, that is when the shortcuts will stop working, but only for the current builder window. Other builders still allow me to use the shortcuts. I haven't figured out how to get them to work again, other than restarting.

Thanks for the additional information. I have opened a Jira ticket: https://track.hpccsystems.com/browse/IDE-340 and I will see if I can reproduce.

Same issue. When I try to use ctrl-q, a highlighted DC1 appears.

Do we know yet when this fix should appear in 5.x releases?

It was merged into candidate-4.2.6, so should be available in any build since then.

Hmm... that's disappointing. I'm still seeing issues in 5.x versions.
I'm looking at Enterprise Edition - I assume that won't make a difference?
