[SOLVED] Screen switches to low res on some keystroke....

I am new to xfce4, and I'm using some software (Blender) which has a load of keystrokes. Some combination is switching xfce into a low resolution mode where the screen pans about with the mouse.  All my searches have given me no solution.  What am I hitting that does this?  It might be alt-space.  But more important what do I do, other than log out and in, to get it back to the normal resolution?

Many thanks in advance!
TOF.

Which keyboard shortcuts do you have assigned?

xfconf-query -c xfce4-keyboard-shortcuts -lv

Xfce doesn't have any default keyboard shortcuts that would change the screen resolution or zoom.

Thanks,
I may have found the answer in a thread below.  It looks like it is part of the Windows Manager Tweaks->Accessibility.  If I go there and set the 'key used to grab and move windows' to None, the effect doesn't seem to happen.  I'm marking this as SOLVED, since I can't seem to reproduce it now that I have that setting.
