Thanks a lot Steve,
I have installed the version 6.2.12 again installed over the previous version and now the short key [ and ] 
does work again.
I don't know the reason for this, but every thing it’s OK now.
The illustration of the mouse in combination is a different content in my Dutch version, but I see this can 
be modified.
It's very useful.
Best regards Theo
