Mac, tracker and tab malfunction

Anonymous — Thu, 04 Mar 2010 20:11:02 GMT

On mac
As shown in the picture below, there is an option to let the tab chose between only text boxes and lists or all controls.
When the last one is selected, the distant tracker doesn't work anymore.
The chance is real that the tab button is doing something below in the window, but that it doesn't let the user type a distance in the tracker.

As I don't always want to change that setting, is there a workaround inside ArchiCAD?

I'm using mac also and having no issue with these setting.
My guess for your issue is the language setting upon the top right corner. Maybe it only works with US ????

Please check and let us know

Thanks for the idea, but it is reproducible in every language I have tested in now.

However, I have found how to reproduce with above prefs.
It is when you press tab before the tracker is visible (or when you are not busy drawing)
That way the tab button is active below in the window.
And when the tracker appears to draw something, the tab still stays in the bottom of the window, in stead of going to the tracker.

Can you also confirm this please?
I think (hope) it is not for me alone...
