Where is Shift+F1 hiding? The system display doesn't set this shortcut either. 

 

But when I set Shift+F1, it doesn't work the way I want it to, and when I press it a second time, I get a popup that says “Search complete”.
When I cancel Shift+F1, it still pops up “Search Complete”.

 

Thank you.

I find it, but it seems 

Thanks for the reminder.
I seem to have found it, but it shouldn't have been me.

 

I can't find where to set this, I'm going to remove this code.

	<shortcut>
		<action-id value="0x4900 + 2" name="KBSCE Text and Tables:Load Find and Find Next instance"></action-id>
		<context>TextContext</context>
		<string>Shift+#Keyboard_F1</string>
	</shortcut>

Also, it doesn't indicate that this key combination is already occupied.

Hi @dublove,

 

Thanks for reporting it. I’m not seeing the same on my end. It sounds like Shift + F1 might be mapped to a system function or another hidden command. Could you check in Edit > Keyboard Shortcuts to see if it’s assigned? If unassigning it doesn’t fix the issue, try sharing a short screen recording showing the workflow till the popup. Also, let me know your InDesign version and OS details. Looking forward to your update!
