Book panel is a special type of panel that is always associated with the .INDB file – unlike other panels where there is no actual association with a file on disk. The panel also shows the name of the Book file. If that INDB file is deleted, then the panel does not have any meaning.
Only when the Book file is opened is the Book panel available. So it can’t be part of a workspace & thus its size and location also can’t be fixed as there could be multiple Book files that can be opened simultaneously.—

We need to use ALT+PgDn to step through books for editing, but unfortunately it inserts random characters at the insertion point when used. These random characters cause significant issues when we publish client's books, as they are often inserted after final manuscript proofreading are done and just before we go to print. Our clients are none too happy to find umlauts, section marks, and other weird artifacts strewn throughout their book which were simply caused by us reviewing the final output before print.
It's interesting that it doesn't always do this. Sometimes ALT+PgDn works properly, so it lulls you into thinking it isn't broken. Then it starts dropping characters in your file.
As another poster mentioned, it only happens on the PgDn on the Windows keypad with NumLock off.
Still a problem in version 17.1
