Hi,
here the redraw windows script only works from menu, not from shortcut
F10. Changing the shortcut to F11 or another F... makes the shortcut
working. Why?

Has F10 worked for you in other Windows releases? It never has for me
unless, maybe, it was in Windows 95. I've always moved the script to F5
which is where many windows programs assign corresponding functions. For
example, F5 reloads a page in Netscape and updates file lists in Windows
Explorer. However, to the main point, I find it impossible to assign
PageStream scripts to most function keys in any version of PageStream.
In at least one case I know why. My spell checker, which is active in
all applications, uses F11 for preferences and, therefore, blocks other
programs from using it. Overall, I've largely given up on assigning
scripts to function keys. It's one of those niggling problems that
probably doesn't happen for Deron and doesn't command his attention the
way something like invisible text must.

F10 has never worked for me, not in ME, 98 or XP home or Pro.
This also over three different computers.

I just change it to F8

Because the system by default intercepts that key for some reason or
another. Sorry, I don't remember why but I think it is recorded somewhere
in our docs. Anyway, as I recall there is a way to disable it in the system
and make it pass the key through to PageStream.
