Bug in animation editor

[Alex M. Lehmann]

Hi all,

I experience a very weird bug in the animation editor. I reassigned one hotkey to toggle the screen disply from window to full that normally is on F12 to TAB. That way my finger rests at all times on the TAB and I switch a lot between windows (old Maya behaviour where it conveniently rests on the SPACE).

Anyway, 1 out of 5 times, when I switch to the graph editor (which I have to activate with a left click first before the TAB-screen switch works - annoying!) my tool gets stuck with either the select tool or the camera tool icon (S-key, but not the functionality). It's stuck, I can only select things but not change the zoom or anything and it's hard to get out of it - sometimes hitting space a bunch of times, sometimes space and S, sometimes clicking some objects... I use XSI 6.5 on Vista 64...

I have more of those "stuck" tool problems on and on but the one in the graph editor is the worst. Any ideas anyone? Anyone encountering the same?

Well, after alt+tab, sometimes I get stuck on the snap tool. Don't know why.
I'm using XSI 64 on Vista 64.

yep, I noticed the same behavior.

I thought it was me accidentally pressing a hotkey.

I regularly get tools sticking in the way described, but to break the norm I'm on windows xp 32. It's often the s tool. The way out of it is to click the big arrow in the corner of the screen. Least for me it is.
