Quote:I would like to be able to pop open the field editor from a layout element OTHER THAN the one I want to see in the editor. In other words, I may be in a FIRST NAME LE and want to look at the remarks (which even if I went to the Remarks LE, exceed the visible area). Then when I close the field editor, I would still be in the FIRST NAME LE, where I wanted to be. I'm picturing a simple command like @fedit(Remarks) or something similar.
Hello Spencer,
Well something like that is already in 2.0. Actually it is better than that but could be used to do that. @PopupStringEditor() brings up what looks very similar to the Field Editor, but with differences. You can pass in an initial value, a Title for the window, Width and Height along with the X and Y coordinates. So you could say
Remarks = @PopupStringEditor(Remarks, "Please type in additional Remarks", 600, 400, 100, 100)
If the User exits without saving the initial Value, the value passed in, is returned. Otherwise the modified value is returned. It has searching ability, standard Right Click menu choices, Dozens of Shortcut Keystrokes, and some other features.
