FMP 10 on Tiger: Window is inactive after Cmd-Tab
Christoph Kaufmann
When I open a file with FMP 10.03 Adv on OS 10.4.11, I can tab to a
field, or change to find mode an start typing into the first field or
tab to another field as well.
When I use Cmd-Tab to Switch to a different application and switch back,
the file has become inactive; the status area is greyed. Cmd-F changes
to find mode, and the cursor blinks in the first fild, but I can't type
or tab. Cmd-B changes back, but I still can't tab to a field, type
anything or switch files with cmd-<>. I haven't found a keystroke that
makes the window active again; I have to drag my mouse from under
whatever pile it hides and click on the darned thing.
It doesn't matter in which version the file was created. No such
problems with the same files in FMP 8.03 Adv. Is this a Tiger issue? Any
workarounds?
