Creo 11 top row number characters (e.g. @) stop working for mapkeys after a new part is created

I am using Creo Parametric Release 11.0 and Datecode11.0.1.0

In Creo 11, after creating a new part (e.g. ctrl-n), the keyboard does not type an "@" character (shift+2) into the lower menu space (where the message log is shown), for example to trigger a mapkey name that contains "@". All shift characters have the same problem after a new part is created. I have confirmed that I can type the @ character into the menu space before creating the new part. The characters can still be typed into the "search" field so it is not a hardware issue. I have also confirmed that Creo 10 does not exhibit this problem.

    Hi @CA_10146793 

     

    Thanks for the update. I agree missing Conflict dialog can lead the confusion as in your case. 

    About $F2, default assignment of F2 is to Rename, but that can clear from Windows Shortcut. Created a sample mapkey with keystroke F2 and that worked well for me with keyboard input. If possible share the F2 mapkey to review. 

     

    Thanks

    I have confirmed the behavior in Creo 11.0.0 and also confirmed this does not happen in Creo 9.  I agree with @MartinHanak - you should open up a ticket with PTC so they can file a bug report (SPR).

    Thank you both, case opened.  I first posted on the forum as per initial action suggested by PTC support "bot".  Additionally:

    • Confirmed while on support call with PTC that shift+1, shift+2, and shift+3 keyboard inputs are being ignored in Creo 11 while a part is in session but are received in Creo 10.  Any subsequent keyboard input of "allowed" characters (after the ignored characters are attempted) are received.
    • Also I should mention for clarity that I have previously confirmed that the mapkeys with "@" may still be successfully triggered by mouse/menu action in both Creo 10 and Creo 11
    • They are working on it

    Hello @CA_10146793 

     

    Just for information, this issue is with R&D now. 

     

    Thanks.
