It's a Windows thing. Press F10 on most other programmes and you
should notice similar behaviour. I had the same question a few months ago.

after all this time I have spent with PD I just came across some strange behaviour: pressing F10 seems to freeze the gui and changes the mouse cursor (different arrow, pointing to a different direction) without effecting audio or the metro. Pressing F10 again, the left mouse button or ESC switches back to normal mode. Is it possible to change this behaviour (since I would like to assign F10 to something else), are there any other hidden functions connect to the F*-keys?`Is this consistent for all OS (I am currently on winXP, PD-0.36, TCL/TK 8.3)?
