Function keys don't work in Windows

Post by jean_naden »

Up to now I have been able to press F1 to build and my shifted function keys configured under the User menu also worked. After not using TexMaker for a couple of months I find now that no matter what function key I press I get the same result: the configured action does not happen and a little graphic drops down at the upper left. Doing a Google search for "TexMaker function keys don't work", I found some items for the Ubuntu distribution but nothing for Windows.

Recommended reading 2024:

LaTeXguide.org • LaTeX-Cookbook.net • TikZ.org

NEW: TikZ book now 40% off at Amazon.com for a short time.

And: Currently, Packt sells ebooks for $4.99 each if you buy 5 of their over 1000 ebooks. If you choose only a single one, $9.99. How about combining 3 LaTeX books with Python, gnuplot, mathplotlib, Matlab, ChatGPT or other AI books? Epub and PDF. Bundle (3 books, add more for higher discount): https://packt.link/MDH5p
