View Full Version : Dialog Window - Ctrl-Right click missing

Hi Friedrich,

In the Dialog properties (in this case the welcome dialog) I wanted to
change the title to use my [PRODUCTNAME] and found that none of the
entries on the dialog properties window allow Ctrl-Right click to
select. Normally you would use the string ID# there but in some cases
you might want to use a variable. I've tried it and it works without
problems, just no ctrl-Right click.

Hi Arnór,

Using variables here is not the suggested method, so
Ctrl-Right-Select-Variable is not supported.

Just noticed that the "Edit Text Resource Properties" (if you click ID=)
does not allow Ctrl-Right-Select-Variable. I'll try to fix this

Is there a downside by using texts directly without entering them into
the string resources?

That's what I did and then I ran into Ctrl-Right missing there too<g>
I think I reported it... I think...
