The uninstaller for Model Maker said to go into the options (for Model maker) 
and remove all its key binding first.   I did notice that the CTRL+SHIFT+Down 
was on the list (because that was the sequence that was crashing the IDE).   It 
may be that Model Maker was just passing it on to the IDE, or was doing 
something also with the mapping or just reporting on the IDE mappings – I don’t 
know.

So the CTRL+SHIFT+DOWN stopped working afterwards.   I was also troubleshooting 
issues with the VM (VM Server with lots of issues with incompleted snapshots 
etc), and by the time it was all cleaned up and shut down and restarted the 
next day then hey presto it started working again as it should.

I will probably never know exactly what did what to what to cause that issue 
and what fixed it.   Guess that goes into the “Now its working again I don’t 
really care what caused it”

Ctrl+Shift up/down for interface/implementation navigation are standard IDE 
mappings, not Model Maker specific.  I doubt ModelMaker could/would be 
interfering with these basic editor functions (especially if it's been 
uninstalled).

Do you have any other IDE experts or plug-ins installed that may be hijacking 
these key-cuts ? 


A more exotic (and perhaps irrelevant) source of the problem may be key-maps 
occuring on the host if you are running in a VM (especially if on a Mac).  e.g. 
Parallels on my Mac can be configured to re-map keystrokes from the host before 
they are sent to the guest OS in the VM, so you are pressing Ctrl+Shift 
up/down, but the guest OS (Windows) sees "Alt+Shift Up/Down", for example.

I can't see you such host/guest maps may have spontaneously come into play, 
even if they are the cause.  But then I know from first hand experience that 
sometimes when "I haven't changed anything" it's actually a memory fault in the 
Little Grey Cells, and in fact I've simply forgotten that I was tweaking 
something.

  It would probably be worth emailing the Model Maker guys - for two reasons, 1 
they will probably know a fix, 2 it's likely a bug and they would probably like 
to know about it - or of course it could be unrelated.

    XE2 was crashing with an error message in Model Maker when pressing 
CTRL+SHIFT+DOWN  (to jump to implementation of a procedure).   It was a demo 
and expired anyway, so I uninstalled Model Maker, and all OK now but I have 
lost the key mappings for CTRL+SHIFT+DOWN and CTRL+SHIFT+UP.   Don’t want to 
live without these...

    Is there any way to re-enable these?   changing the key mappings in 
Tools/Options (eg default to classic and back again) does not fix it, and I 
have not found an option to add key mappings or to reset to default.
