Description Patrick Sifneos CLA 2006-07-28 03:06:31 EDT
When switch between Eclipse and any other application (safari, email) shortcuts won't work anymore. This is what I am exactly doing:

1) Programming in Eclipse, JSP, JSF, JAVA, JavaScript
2) Save my changes
3) Switching from Eclipse to Saari to see the changes (apple key + tab)
4) F5 to reload page in Safari
5) Switch back to Eclipse (apple key + tab)

Now no shortcut will work.

I have to switch once again to another application (any application) and switch back to Eclipse and the shortcuts are working again.

Any workarround?
