I am running FMP10A (10.0v1) on a Ti PowerBook G4, 1Ghz, 1GB RAM with
Mac OS 10.4.11.
I notice when I use Cmd-Tab to move between applications that FMP
does not behave as it used to in previous versions.
Sample scenario - I have one FMP window open, and I Cmd-Tab to
another application to copy some text. When I Cmd-Tab back to FMP and
try to tab to the field where I want to paste the data, I get an
alert sound and no field is entered. The "toolbar" area at the top of
the window is greyed. Only after clicking somewhere in the window can
I tab between fields. This really hampers fast work when moving
between applications.
The window menu gives no clue as to what might be happening - the
only window open has a tick mark against it, and choosing "bring all
to front" does not allow field entry by tabbing.
I will post the bug on the FMP website (why don't they make it easier
to find the feature-request/bug-reporting pages?) but wondered if
anyone else is seeing this behaviour. Perhaps a number of people
reporting it might prod them into taking action to fix it. Or maybe
someone here can tell me if I've done something stupid to cause this
behaviour.
regards
Rowland
