OK, this thread seems to be turning into a bugs list: I've just noticed that there seems to be some sort of "time-out" on the F8 and F9 shortcut keys (to apply a character format and paragraph format, respectively) in FM8.
In earlier versions of FM, you could press F9, type the first (couple of) character(s) of a paragraph format and then ENTER. You could see the names of the paragraph format appear in the lower-left corner of your FrameMaker window. This was a really nice feature: you didn't have to let go of your keyboard to use the mouse and you didn't have to display the catalogs, which saved some screen real estate. Now, in FM8, when I press F9, I just get to see the names of paratags for 2 seconds in the lower-left corner of my FM window, which makes it impossible to use these shortcuts.
