    Hi all,

    ACAD2005 on WinXP.

    I have Accelerator keys Ctrl+Shift+F/B defined for commands
    Bring to Front/Send to Back. From certain point in time they are both
    acting strange. What happens is that when I hit Ctrl+Shift+B
    it starts the Send to Back command and prompts for the selection of
    objects BUT it also toggles the Object Snap.
    Same thing w. Ctrl+Shift+F: it starts Bring to Front but also toggles
    Snap.

    I've check in help and found out that Ctrl+F is a built-in standard ACAD
    shortcut for toggling the Snap, and Ctrl+B for toggling the running
    object snap. So what it appears to happen is that when hiting
    Ctrl+Shift+B/F ACAD executes also the commands associated with Ctrl+B/F
    accelerator.

    This is the only accelerators that I've noticed tha acts that way.
    (Ctrl+S Saves, Ctrl+Shift+S *just* Saves As, Ctrl+C and Ctrl+Shift+C
    also work proper without disturbing each other)


    Anyone has/had similar problems and/or knows how to mend them?

    TIA
    Matjaz
