[DUG] XE2 lost key mappings

Ctrl+Shift up/down for interface/implementation navigation are standard IDE
mappings, not Model Maker specific.  I doubt ModelMaker could/would be
interfering with these basic editor functions (especially if it's been
uninstalled).

Do you have any other IDE experts or plug-ins installed that may be
hijacking these key-cuts ?


A more exotic (and perhaps irrelevant) source of the problem may be
key-maps occuring on the host if you are running in a VM (especially if on
a Mac).  e.g. Parallels on my Mac can be configured to re-map keystrokes
from the host before they are sent to the guest OS in the VM, so you are
pressing Ctrl+Shift up/down, but the guest OS (Windows) sees "Alt+Shift
Up/Down", for example.

I can't see you such host/guest maps may have spontaneously come into play,
even if they are the cause.  But then I know from first hand experience
that sometimes when "I haven't changed anything" it's actually a memory
fault in the Little Grey Cells, and in fact I've simply forgotten that I
was tweaking something.
