Keyboard shortcut Alt-F5 not binding properly

It appears that Alt-F5 is not binding properly to

Project->Project tree->Activate prior project.

It is listed in the cbKeyBinder10.ini file but nothing happens.

Alt-F6 does work as expected.

This is not a big problem, just sort of a surprise.

Code::Blocks SVN 4333, Windows XP.

I cannot reproduce this problem (SVN 4582 windows).

Could you give us the exact steps to create the failure.

OK. I am using windows XP and I just downloaded the latest nightly update SVN 4564 to see if the problem still exists - which it does.

The problem occurs when I create a workspace with two or more projects. If I execute the menu function Project -> Project tree -> Execute next project, the next project in the workspace is correctly activated. The listed hot key Alt-F6 also correctly cycles through the project.

The menu function Project -> Project tree -> Execute prior project also correctly cycles through the projects in the reverse order. However, the listed hot key Alt-F5 appears to have no effect.

I think this happens with all of my multiple-project workspaces, so I am not sure what else is necessary to cause the problem.

Thanks for looking at it.

SVN 4596 - I still cannot reproduce this problem. Alt-F6 and Alt-F5 work for me with both XP and Ubuntu with a small and large workspace with two or more projects.

Maybe some other daemon, service, or program has registered Alt-F5 in the registry. CB would never see it if another pgm owns it.

I just experimented with another machine and verified that the Alt-F5 shortcut does indeed work properly there. I expect you are correct and that some other program is capturing the Alt-F5 combination on my main computer.

Sorry for the false bug report and thanks for addressing it.
