[WriteLog] Shift+F10 in Windows

This is what Shift+F10 shortcut does in Windows.

| Shift + F10
 | Display the shortcut menu for the selected item |


I have found no way to disable only the Shift+F10 key in Windows but have found suggestions on how to disable all Windows shortcut keys which I don't really want to do. So for now, I'll let Shift+F10 alone.

Thanks Wayne. That's exactly what I needed. All is fine and with the availability of Shift+F1, there appears to be 21 available messages for SSB. However, Shift+F10 is not recognized by Keyboard Shortcuts because it must be in use by another program on both my laptop and my shack desktop.
When I execute Shift+F10, a tiny box appears in the upper left hand part of the screen that says "What's this?".
If I execute Shift+F10 outside WriteLog, it brings up the same menu and right-clicking the mouse. So I'm guessing Shift+F10 is a Windows command to execute a mouse right-click. I don't like so I'll see if I can find a way to disable that.
Also, why is MessageShiftPh12 not available? I'm guessing so that you don't accidentally change frequencies if you fat-finger the shift key? Probably a good idea.
I'll let you know what I find on Shift+F10. Anyone know of a way of disabling it from executing a mouse right-click?

Said another way: you have to use Setup/Keyboard-shortcuts to change the
assignments for SHIFT+F2 through Shift+F11
