Re: selecting a text field - a few questions

2004-03-23 Thread Klaus Major
Hi Doug,

1. If I select a text field and place the insert cursor in the text, 
the
text field gets surrounded by a blue box. What property is that?
That is the "showfocusborder" property...

2. The blue box mentioned in (1) above disappears if I select another 
text
field, but not if I select another control, like a graphic in the same 
card.
Why is that?
The text-selection in a field will disappear when:
1. you make another text-selection
2. when you click a button with its "traversalon" set to true
3. and probably in other situation, that i don't know in the moment ;-)
3. Sometimes the insert cursor doesn't appear. I can type, but I have 
no
confidence as to what the start point is. Is there a way to force the 
insert
cursor to appear to avoid that problem? It is hard to duplicate. 
Usually it
appears when I select the text field, but I can repeat the same action 
and
sometimes it won't appear.
This is a mistery, that i also encoutered very often...

Most of the time there are other controls overlapping that field
(1 pixel seems to be enough), but sometimes there is NO apparent 
reason...

And you are right, it is hard to duplicate.

Hope that helps...

Thanks,

doug
