[SOLVED] Mouse shortcut "Step into selection" while debugging does not work on Windows [message #1246781]

Hey,

I recently recognized that the "Step into selection" mouse shortcut (Ctrl + Alt + left mouse click) does not work on Windows (Eclipse Kepler). I'm just able to use the corresponding keyboard shortcut (Ctr+F5). Has anyone else made the same experience on Windows? It this a bug? On my Linux machine that I use at home, it works perfect.

Thank you,

Kon

Hey,

I made two screenshots showing the "step into selection" shortcut while debugging an application. I made them with my linux os. Can someone verify this? Is this a bug on windows?

I noticed, that this shortcut works for coworkers on windows machines. So I had a further look at my machine and figured out that the tool win-x-move that lets me move any window by pressing alt and the left mouse button (similar to my linux distribution), somehow makes it impossible to use the "Step into selection" shortcut for Eclipse. It's pretty strange ... I remember that it used to work for some time Smile
