EditBox

Return to Introduction  Previous page  Next page  

EditBoxes are rarely used per se in Q++. Because even the simplest text entry often requires looking up characters which are not available from the keyboard, EditBoxes usually occur as part of a ButtonEdit.

 

  

 

Some tips of the use of EditBoxes (which also apply to ButtonEdits) :

 

Press the ESC key to un-select all text.

 

All text selection and clipboard keyboard shortcuts work inside an EditBox.

 

Cancel any changes (while the control has the focus), using CTRL+Z.
