Actually Andrew, if I'm not mistaken, there was a difference when you hit Cancel vs Leave Measure Alone in that the editing frame did not advance on Cancel but did on Leave Measure Alone. (I too am on a Mac). I agree with all here that it is a feature Coda must bring back. I sometimes type like a hooved animal and I'm always having to backtrack to fix something that use to be much easier to deal with. I've spoken with Coda about this and I was told they removed the button because it was causing problems. Huh?? They may have been implying there were code problems under the surface or something since I never noticed any problems until they removed the button. *************************** J.D.
