Shortcut for "Repeat last"?

[Jeff Coatsworth]

Yes, me too - however I found that tweaking my maker.ini file to paste text (unformatted) solved the issue of having to save the Word doc to text & then copy/paste). The other "downside" to FM10's F6 function is that unlike Word, it will still pop confirmation dialogs rather than just repeating the last command & response. So you still end up clicking or hitting enter to confirm what you want to do (I notice this most when dealing with rows in tables).

It's almost worth the upgrade cost just for that feature.

The one thing I've hated in the switch to FM9 (from Word) was that there was no F4 (repeat last) equivalent. It's particularly frustrating whenever I move another Word doc to Frame (I never import, I always save the DOC to text and reformat from scratch in FM - there are too many issues in large Word docs for me to trust a straight import. I'd much rather *know* I've started with a clean slate). 

One keystroke beats three any day.

 FM10's now got an F6 repeat last command (and icon on the toolbar)
