Object inspector problem lazarus / 11-Options ---------------------------------------------------------------------- classic12 · 2010-02-14 20:20 Windows xp pro. When I try to change the caption of an object the focus jumps to another property box. eg on Caption if I start with a 'e' it jumps to Enables property(as if there is a shortvut happening) Any ideas Cheers SteveW ---------------------------------------------------------------------- DirkS · 2010-02-14 20:34 You're in search mode.
