Stopping execution
I sometimes want to stop a test while it's running, even if there has been no error.
I find that getting control of the mouse long enough to click the stop button is difficult.
The keyboard shortcut that is supposed to stop a test is only useable if TestComplete has focus... When I'm running a test, the tested app has focus.
So stopping the test still requires clicking with the mouse to move focus off of the tested app, and onto TestComplete, and then using the keyboard command before the test takes back control and clicks something else on the tested app.
Is there a way to force a test to stop? A keyboard combination that will do it regardless of where focus is, for instance?

- Use Shift-F2 key combinations. this will stop test execution regardless of tested app windows
