Not a new bug as I've noticed this in earlier versions too.  What is new is 
that it now crashes the program.  Before it would just temporarily lock 
things up (as it searched for the rotor I guess).  Selecting "none" for 
Rotor control in the setup should take care of this but it does not.  After 
accidentially hitting Ctrl F10 many times in the past when changing code 
speed I finally learned to follow the doctor's advice of "well, don't do 
that" when the patient said "it hurts when I do this".  Since it's now a 
crash instead of a minor annoyance, hopefully, Ken can add a fix for it to 
version 9.41.
