Hi,

It's a shame to use two different keys to get the same result (on Windows and Linux platform), they'd better remove one of those.


I can even say: it's a shame that Fujitsu does not put an Enter key in their laptop (at last on the one I have).


BEWARE: in some parts of the IDE, REALbasic for Windows accept the Enter key to close the window, but the Return key just add a \return into the text field of the window (all Properties that displays a window).

I have a external keyboard that I attach to that laptop and was happy to see that Enter key to not use the Mouse to click in that <OK> button (use Enter instead as it normally does).

I have some other woes on the two other widely available platforms / the same Fujitsu laptop if you want.

So, no, it is not a good job. Worse, use the Keyboard Object to learn how a keyboard can work. "If there is a key, it can be detected by its own".


Emile


PS: please, stop sending rant in your messages, not good will happen from that.

Do you know how to access the "Alt Ctrl" key (when none appears on your 
keyboard)?
Press both keys: Alt+Ctrl

FWIW, it's a good job I know that the "Return" key is actually the =
"Enter" key on a gazillion Windows and Linux keyboards around the world.
