The same key can do different things depending on the screen in focus: the focused view wins, and outside it the window shortcut applies. With a Database tab in focus, F4 opens the object properties instead of playing the macro; in the Diff and in the output panel, F8/Shift+F8 jump from change to change; and in the Standalone files window, Alt+←/Alt+→ go back and forward between folders. The full, filterable list lives in Help → Keyboard Shortcuts.
