shift f5 does not interrupt execution on two screens

when I worked with winautomation on two screens, the stop execution command worked even though it was on the second screen, currently the PAD shift f5 does not stop execution, I sometimes see my bot frustratedly going in the wrong direction, and I don't see an efficient way to stop execution. I suggest you look into this soon, interrupting an execution is absolutely important, and as I said, this doesn't work on two screens, shift f5 is ignored, and nothing is interrupted.

Any stories other than this?

    Yeah, the story is that the keyboard shortcuts for controlling the flow are simply useless.

    And the shortcut for playing the flow while paused is F5, which is laughably stupid, as it is the standard shortcut for refreshing a web page...
