Bizarre character issue (Uppercase F does not work)

2006-09-26 Thread Niels Fanøe
Well, I can't use my ! (exclamation mark) - haven't been able to in ages. I 
suspect the answer lies in some keyboard configuration file - I suppose the ! 
maps to nothing.

Maybe I'll look at it again - actually you don't use the ! very much in 
technical documentation - but if I find out, I'll let you know! :o)

Bizarre character issue (Uppercase F does not work)

2006-09-25 Thread Bernard Aschwanden
Hi all:

I'm running into a really odd FrameMaker issue on my laptop. I'm typing and the 
only character that I can't insert is F. Uppcase F.

I try to do so and nothing is inserted. If I type a lowercase F and then apply 
a key sequnce to force uppercase, I see the F character with not issues. 
Can't press Shift+f and get anywhere.

I've restarted the application. I've restarted the computer. I've tried this in 
other software and it works perfectly. I tried the 'other' shift key. I tried 
all kinds of other uppercase characters and they work.

Word, email, notepad, excel and more. No issues. Just rameMaker (little joke 
there... It does work in email. See: FrameMaker can drive you crazy at times).

Any help would be fantastic.

Bernard

Does [ALT]+70 (on the num pad) insert the ASCII char for F?

Bernard,
  Have you edited your config recently or installed a plug-in? I wonder if 
F has become a shortcut for some command that has no effect when you are 
typing text.
