When the Enter button on a Family window or a Person window is highlighted in blue, it would be useful to have a keystroke to activate it. At present you have to take your fingers off the keyboard.
I suppose that ideally the key to use would be the Return key - though that might be problematical since it may legitimately be used on the Notes page (where the Enter button is also highlighted). In most pages the Return key duplicates the function of the Tab key.
A Command key alternative for each of the buttons on a page would also be useful...

A Command key alternative for each of the buttons on a page would also be useful... download version 103 from: www.lanopalera.net/Genealogy/PAWriterU.dmgto get the corrected version of PAWriter. Check Read Me First for a short description. I'm asking you to be the Beta tester for this version, so I won't post a reference to it until you are happy with the corrections. Thanks. Second, When a button says Enter, you can press the Enter key, not the Return key or the Tab key. I chose Enter to mean Enter.  Third, Use rollover help to check for command key alternatives to controls in a window; i.e., hold down the Shift key and roll the cursor over the control to see a popup description of that control. Roll out of the control to make the popup go away. This is noted in About PAWriter Help from the Help menu and in the About Help button in the main window. You will also find command key alternatives in the various menu items. You should also scan the PAWriter Reference Guide available from the Help menu and from the Reference button in the main window. Hope this helps. Best, Howard |
