v6.17.1 build 1542 beta F-keys not working

[Mighty 4]

Just installed the beta.  Machine was recently rebooted.

The few F-key combinations I've tried don't work.  I prefer to see my notes in list view, and open them in a separate window.  Ctrl-F11 does nothing.  I tried F10, to cycle the left panel.  Again, nothing happened.

As an aside, every time I have to install Evernote on a new machine I have trouble getting the view back the way I like it.  I always have to search to find how to turn off the note panel.  You need to add that to the View menu.  There are lots of view options you should add to the View menu.  That's where I expect to find them.
