I can no longer enter text into my empty fields

Post by Paul D » Thu Jul 26, 2007 7:37 pm

All of the fields on the stack are...

Visible
Not locked
Focusable
Empty
Enabled

They also have unique names and IDs

Now all the of sudden I can no longer enter text into them. The cursor is in the field but when I press any keys on the keyboard, nothing gets entered. Adding a new field or deleting the old ones does nothing as well. I imagine there is some setting some where for modal and modeless but I dont see it. Any direction would be helpful, thanks!

Hi Paul,

very strange, will have to guess...

Any "keydown/keyup" script somewhere that my prevent the text entry?
Any other object with its "ink" set to "noop" or its "blendlevel" set to 100 in front of the field(s)?

Sorry, no other ideas...


Best

Klaus

Thanks for the ideas. I checked those and decided to just re-install. Guess Ill just chalk it up to bug and hope it doesnt happen again.
