I've seen something rather similar in several versions of FrameMaker. It still happens now with FrameMaker 2015 Release. As you put it, . . . works beautifully and then blam . . . for no reason, after using the keyboard . . . " shortcuts to copy and paste, " . . . "it's just like FM loses its little mind and just decides it doesn't want to . . . " copy things and paste them. There are other misbehaviors such as this, all of which appear for no apparent reason and, after some time of my putting up with them, the disappear. I also do not know the cause, but I'm willing to believe (long after the fact) that the malfunctions started with FrameMaker 10.

I use the Keyboard shortcut of CTRL + 0 to access the variable list, and then keyboard shortcuts to scroll through the long list, for example, "PR" to scroll through the list of Product variables (Product 1, Product 2, and so on). Nine times outta' ten, this works beautifully and then blam. . .for no reason, after using the keyboard shortcut of CTRL + 0, instead of getting an opened variable list, I get the message "Not Applicable," which means that I have to stop, go to Special > Variables, and then manually scroll the list. This is a real pain with such a big manual to create - I prefer to keep my hands on the keyboard and this shortcut function helps in that endeavor. I haven't been able to tie this behavior to any action in the file - there aren't any issues scrolling/saving the file, the file hasn't crashed. . .it's just like FM loses its little mind and just decides it doesn't want to remember keyboard shortcuts. Has anyone else experienced this behavior? If so, did you ever figure out how to make it stop?
