Ctrl+Shift+A not working anymore

Former Member — Mon, 13 Jun 2016 08:47:58 GMT

Hi Experts,

recently my Ctrl+Shift+A stopped working. Even if i restart eclipse or even windows nothing changes. The same happened to one of my colleagues. Anyone else experienced similar issues. All other shortcuts seem to work well. Even other Ctrl+Shift+XYZ keys are working fine.

Thanks for sharing your experiences.

Regards

Tobias

Hi Tobias,

is it ony the shortcut which is not working or is the function in general not available anymore?

Have you tried the toolbar button 'Open ABAP development object'?

Regards,

Thomas.

Hi Thomas,

the button in the toolbar bar works fine. All other shortcuts seem to work as well. It's just annoying if you always have to use the mouse to open a development object though it works as a workaround.

Edit: When I "rebind" this functionality in the settings (Windows --> Preferences --> General --> Keys ) to another key combination (e.g. Alt+F7) it works great. When I try to rebind it back to "Ctrl+Shift+A" this is not accepted. Though I press the complete shortcut the "A" is not recognized as you can see in the screenshot below:

Every other Ctrl+Shift+XYZ Combo works and can be binded without any problems. Even Ctrl+A and Shift+A can be binded. It only Ctrl+Shift+A not working. I really wonder if this is an issue with eclipse or Windows 10.

Regards,

Tobias

Hmh, sounds strange.

Maybe another program on your system is using this shortcut.

What happens when you hit CTRL-SHIFT-A outside eclipse?

Hi Thomas,

I actually think it must be related to another program since it stopped working from one day to another. Nevertheless, when I press ctrl+shift+A outside of eclipse nothing happens. I will do some research later and see if there are utility programs to find out which application potentially uses the shortcut.

Really strange...
