How do you say "OK"?

2014-01-11 05:11 pm

In the dialogs, how do you say "Ok" with the keyboard?
The only way I found is to press tab until the focus is on the "Ok" button.
Very annoying, in particular in the dialogs with a lot of components.

Hit the "Enter" key?

Yuk!
I should have used a dialog with an edit box that used the carriage return itself, but I can't recall which dialog was.

Thank you.

That works unless the focus is set to a multiple-line edit control that has ES_WANTRETURN set.

NWC 2.51 has 3 multiple-line edit controls. Two of them have ES_WANTRETURN set.

They are:

The Comments field of the Info Command
The Lyric Tabs of the Lyrics Command

Tab, Enter will close them.

For the ugly details, see: Just because you're a control doesn't mean that you're necessarily inside a dialog box.
