Re: [Avid-L2] Re: Option and Command keys stop functioning mid-edit session

I can tell you it's not a Mac OS thing - because if you open the 'character pallette' you can watch the OS register the pressing of the option and command keys... it's just that the Media composer has stopped listening for some reason.

I will be happily option dragging sequences from one bin to another to copy them and all of a sudden the option key stops working. Same with the command click snapping the position indicator to edits in the timeline. I can't figure out why, but it is happening to me on 3 different MC 5.0.3 systems. Two are MacPro and on is a MacBook Pro. Kind find rhyme nor reason for it. It never happens on my trusty PowerMac G5(OS 4.1.1) running 3.0.5. Is it just me? Really?
