    I've come across the situation that the iMac Brightness adjustment keys (F1 and F2) released with version 3.18 of MorphOS conflicting with the PageStream Toolbox keyboard shortcut selection keys (F1 - Object Tool, F2 - Text tool - bear in mind that there are other F? Keys that are assigned for use with the Toolbox function buttons with PageStream), and as a result it is necessary to deactivate the iMac Brightness key setting (remove checkmark) while using PageStream.

    Ideally there needs to be a way to allow either a modifier key (Control, Alt/Option, or Command keys) to ensure that the iMac Brightness key(s) do not conflict with the PageStream Toolbox shortcut keys in the first place? :-?

    Or, allow a user to set/choose the iMac Brightness keyboard shortcut key(s) to suit their own setup? :-?

    [UPDATE - 22 May 2023] Having spoken to cyfm it seems the PageStream Function key mapping can be modified using the Script Palette so that a modifying "Special" key (such as Control, or several other key combination(s)) can be added so they do not clash-conflict with the iMac F1/F2 key(s) to set the Brightness level. 8-)
