No escape key function in AC 20

It works to resume to normal window from a youtube fullscreen video but does not work to deselect something on the cad screen. Just happened all by itself today. Any clues before I go to the IT shop and pee away more dollars?

So now the question is, is the ESC key assigned to any specific command for the web cam, and if so can it be reassigned in the web cam software?

Sorry Dennis, I misunderstood your question. I thought you wanted to use the Esc key to exit Full Screen Mode in ARCHICAD.
Now I understand it was not working at all for you. I am glad you managed to find the reason.

Thanks mate no probs. I have alerted the store and Digitech/Jaycar of the issue with ArchiCAD losing the escape key function when running the Digitech 1080p Web Cam product.
