Text Box Editor Question

Anonymous
Not applicable
Hello,

New poster/viewer here. I have tried to search the topics for my question. Too many and no help. Here it is:

After updating v8.1 to v10, we discovered the Text Editor Box. In v8, we had a habit of double-clicking for custom box text and type our text then hit enter at our number keypad to exit the box (enter at keyboard was used to actually enter a new row in text box). In v10, both enters at keyboard and number pad are used to enter a new row in text box. If I want to set it up like v8 and use enter at number keypad to exit the text box, how do I do that?

Thank you.

I too made the jump straight from V8.1 to V10.
But thankfully I am used to just clicking outside of the text editor with the mouse to end input.

I don't know if change the keyboard shortcuts for this but I did notice that CTRL-ENTER will end input also.
