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
