    Default Drawing Properties Dialog Box

    Summary: To be able to advance from line to line much like the Block Attribute Editer

    Description: Currently the only way to advance to the next line of entry on the Custom Tab of the Drawing Properties Dialog Box is to select it with the curser. Currently tab takes the selection from the line you are on to Add. Pressign enter only completes the process. To be able to press enter to advance to the next line would eliminate a lot of frustrations. Very time consuming and archaic when we think of how far we have come with automation of many programs. Also allow for pressing Ctrl + Enter to finish the command would also speed things up. As we type it ieasiest to press this combination to finish the command as appose to stopping the typing action, grabbing the mouse and selecting OK.

    Summary: To be able to advance from line to line much like the Attribute Editer.

    Description: Currently the only way to advance to the next line of entry on the Custom Tab of the Drawing Properties Dialog Box is to select it with the mouse. Selecting tab only moves the active area of the DB. Pressing enter only closes the dialog box. To be able to press enter to advance to the next line would eliminate a lot of frustrations and wasted time. Very time consuming and archaic when we think of how far we have come with automation of many programs. Having the ability to move a line item up or down to reorder the list would also prove helpful. Pressing Ctrl + Enter to finish the command would speed things up. As we type it is easiest to press this combination to finish the command as appose to stopping the typing action, grabbing the mouse and selecting OK. In other words, please make this dialog box more user friendly. It is great entering fields into a template for new projects.
