Cadence 6 Key Lock

GTStan

Hello Gentlemen, My research team and I are encountering an issue in Cadence 6 (IC6.1.4.500.13 (32-bit)) where dialogue boxes will suddenly be unresponsive to key stroke entries.  This seems to happen at random intervals and the only means of fixing this issue has been to do a cold re-boot of Cadence 6.  We have attempted closing and re-opening all dialogue boxes, but the boxes still remain unresponsive to key strokes.  The CIW will however respond to keyboard entries.  Any insight would be appreciated!

     Thanks for the quick response and insight!  Sadly there is no way to immediately verify that the problem is fixed, since it was never immediately apprenent what would trigger the lock.  We have eliminated the settings in the XMODIFIERS env variable, and things are running smoothly so far.  I'm betting this will be our saving grace.

     Thanks.
