Yes, I experienced the same issues. I upgraded to FM 12, which fixed the problem.

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.

Haven't used more recent versions to know whether Adobe ever got around to fixing it.

Previous releases, I could "drive" the app from the keyboard, rarely or never using the mouse. From FM9 on, I found that impossible. It was also impossible to save the dialogs / pods in the positions and sizes that were most useful to me. I reported a long list of issues and most of them were never fixed.
