Michael,
I was using 10=Step-Over and F11=Step-Into and they did not work. I also tried a user-actions key: Alt+f2. It also failed!
A different time, my Delete key stopped working! I guess RDI likes to "TEST-ME"...
I had just started debug, tried to step over, and it work not work with F10. Only the menu would work! What junk! Why would a function key NOT work? Function keys work perfectly find in Access Client Solutions. It is NOT the fault of Windows or my keyboard!
Ever since windows 2000, I rarely, if ever have problems with windows. IBM OS/2 Warp was FAILURE! It was JUNKED! It LOST in the Market Place, just like "Beta-Max". <LOL>
Of course now we have netflixs & DVD. <Evil Smirk>
Now, RDI is a completely different story...
F10 works on Green-Screen Debug, and has NEVER NOT worked! I wish I could say the same for RDI. I could do the step-over from the menu, and see the shortcut key in the menu...
Cannot blame the keyboard, A BRAND NEW Windows 10 computer with i7 Intel! Brand New FORMAT! Someone, suggest that I reload "Windows". Why? It makes NO sense to me, WINDOWS is working GREAT!!!! Only RDI ever gives me issues!
Oh well, this "Restart Crapware RDI" magically works after a "RESTART" of RDI. Which tell me there is a BUG and/or memory leak in the software. What else would Cause that? When other applications do not fail??
Just mere minutes of go... My RDI did another strange thing... I could NOT CLICK on ANY VIEW! Would NOT WORK PERIOD!!! I could switch perspectives, but not activate ANY VIEW AT ALL!!!!
Now, I did not get the milky white screen of death, but I couldn't do ANYTHING!
Yup, I created ANOTHER DUMP and sent it to IBM. I sent 4 dumps just from TODAY!
The only common failure point is RDI! Everything else in Windows 10 works GREAT!
Mind you, I am using the "Test-Patch" just released TODAY. Maybe that is why they call it a "TEST-PATCH", and not the "FINAL-FIX"...

Ken,
I'm sure this has got to be frustrating. When the keys aren't responding, do you know which view is "active" or "has the focus"?
I can't guarantee this is your issue, but it's worth a shot. I've had times where the wrong view (most frequently, the Monitors view) had focus and the keyboard appeared unresponsive. If I clicked into the Editor view (or perhaps the Debug view), the keys were again functional.
The only other time I've ever had the Run, Step Over, Step Into, etc. keys stop working is when I have an interactive program waiting on input in the job being debugged. I've rarely had to restart RDi to get things responsive.
As far as years and years of restarting software, have you ever heard of a product called Windows. For many more than 9 years, the standard fix was reboot. (It still is in a lot of cases.)

[WDSCI-L] RDi 9.5 --> Keys stop working..
Hi,
I am using RDi 9.5.01. with test patch (2015-10-27) once again my KEYS
STOP WORKING!!!
Brand New Laptop, installed RDI 9.5 on Nov 4, 2015. And then
installed the test patch.
Once again Key-board keys DO NOT WORK!!!
None of the keys for debug work!!! Using the menu: > run>Step-Over,
but the KEY DOES NOT WORK!!! AGAIN!!!!
Other keys combination do NOT work either....
I have a plug-in USB keyboard, the keys work fine. They just do NOT
work inside of RDI 9.5....
Is this "TOO MUCH" to ask that the Keyboard works???
Of course no messages in the "error" view, because they do NOT
REGISTER!!!
GUESS WHAT FIXES IT????????????? Yup, "RESTART" RDI!!!
I guess after using RDI for over 9-years, I should EXPECT THIS...
"Restart-Software"... <Big Frown>
PS. Since I CANNOT duplicate it, so I cannot report it, nor open a PMR.
