    Text entry

    Sorry if this has been covered, doing a search for text is overwhelming.

    Is there a way to close (enter) the text specification box other than a mouse click? Enter and tab obviously don't work, I guess that is a good thing.

    If there isn't a way then I will post a suggestion- probably ctl and enter would be my choice.

    YES, that is it!!! I looked right at it but it didn't' register how it was written. Too many big words for my tired head, and in small blue font too!

    Text Specification Enter Key

    Thank you both!

    This solution works, but what if I want to be able to close the text box AND be able to create a new line with ENTER? There should be another way to close the text box without a mouse click. CTRL + ENTER would be nice. Is there another way I'm missing?

    I just hacked into your computer and reprogrammed Chief so that Ctrl+Enter will work just like you requested.
