Some hot keys initially do not work on project opening

I am using a recent nightly and have encountered no crashes or MAJOR bugs. In fact I have a job to do and freedom from crashes is why I am reluctant to update right now. Pretty happy with this build.

But I note that when I first open a project, F1 and F2 zoom keys never work. Once I have zoomed using the menu button…then F1 and F2 will work after that. Just now I think I noticed something similar for M to move some text. I am most certain about the F1 and F2 as this has happened consistently/repeatedly.

Obviously this is a minor issue but just wondering whether I should report it or any feedback?

Thank you. The “oldie” description makes it sound like operator error. However at least I know now that if I am nuts I am not the only one. :slight_smile: I reiterate that this is a minor issue I have found in what otherwise seems to be a rather good-working nightly build.
