Description coldrick 2005-04-27 06:08:58 UTC

WinXP, nb4.1rc1, EA new formbuilder
One of the features of jFormDesigner that I like is when I build, say, 5 labels
in a column, I can use the arrow keys to step from one to the next (eg for
setting text). Can't do this in this build, have to go to the mouse to move.

Regards,
David

Thanks for report David.

Have you tried TAB/Shift+TAB? It should be enough in most case, though it does
not follow the visual appearance of the components, just the creation order.
Arrow keys would be more comfortable.
