Re: A little question and a bigger issue

As a tagalong to this question:

In WDSC 6.* if I have multiple sources open, every so often when I
ctrl-shft-A nothing happens.  If I switch to a different source and do
the same keypress, then it opens up the Open Member dialog.  If I return
to the source in question, I still can't call the Open Member dialog.

Similarly, if I have the "Find" box up I have to Escape out before
attempting to Ctrl-Shft-A.

Subject: [WDSCI-L] A little question and a bigger issue

One of my favorite features of WDSC is Ctrl-Shift-A, which brings up the
Open Member in Editor dialog to open any member using RSE.  It's really
great!

However, in WDSC6, the key combination used to work even if I had no
members open, but now it does not.  I tend to create a workbench in
which the only open views are the editor and then the "information"
views such as console and iSseries command log and so on.  I Fast View
things like the RSE.

Therefore, when I have no members open, I get a workbench that consists
of a stack of views on the bottom, a menu on the top, and a big gray
block in between.  When I have this configuration, Ctrl-Shift-A doesn't
work; I get no response from WDSC.

If I click on the Fast View icon for the RSE, Ctrl-Shift-A works.  If I
have a member open in edit and it is in focus, Ctrl-Shift-A works.

However, none of the informational views (iSeries command log, iSeries
table view, or even Tasks) have Ctrl-Shift-A enabled.  Remote Systems
Details does, but that's about it.

Small question: can this be fixed?  We have a work around: click on a
view such as RSE that enables the key.  But it would be nice if the
original behavior still worked.

Bigger question: What determines which key sequences are activated in
each view?  Why do these keys no longer work?
