Okay, that's understandable. Tab or Return will cause validation and (if possible) end editing on the current text field. I'm in the habit of doing that from early OS X days, so seldom think about it now. The preferences should probably do that when switching views or closing the window, if possible…I know this has come up before, but maybe it wasn't fixed for all views. -- Adam ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Verizon Developer Community Take advantage of Verizon's best-in-class app development support A streamlined, 14 day to market process makes app distribution fast and easy Join now and get one step closer to millions of Verizon customers http://p.sf.net/sfu/verizon-dev2dev _______________________________________________ Bibdesk-users mailing list Bibdesk-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/bibdesk-users
