Capture 17.2 can't close Property Editor window with keyboard

Gabor Sz

I saw an old post about this same issue for Capture 16.6 that was solved by an update.  I'm currently running Capture 17.2-2016 S048 on Windows 10.  I have the same issue that while other tabs or windows close with Ctrl+F4, I can only close Property Editor windows using the mouse right-click menu as shown below:

Note that in this menu it shows that Ctrl+F4 should work to close the tab, but it doesn't.  Any ideas how to fix this?

Thanks,

Gabor

    You'll need to report this to Cadence support (http://support.cadence.com) or your Channel Partner (who you bought the software from) to get this looked at.

    You used to be able to do a Ctrl-Tab to get back to the schematic page you came from.  It was super-useful.  Of course Cadence took it away.
