Not sure what you mean. When I click on the Type "properties" and
Associations "Button" I get a list of 116 item in the top right hand window
of the dictionary. Of course only the first 22 are showing and to see the
rest I need to scroll the list. Perhaps if the font was smaller you would
see more items at one time but to say they are not all there. If you compare
the LC8 with the LC6 dictionary under these circumstances you will notice
the absence of some items. As far as I can tell they appear to be synonyms
for existing terms. For example the entry for "accelKey" is not in LC8+ as a
seperate entry but is listed as a synonym for "acceleratorKey".
Typing "accel" into the search box on LC6 will display 6 items. On LC8 only
3 as the extra 3 items under LC6 are synonyms of the three items shared with
LC8+.
So I guess on change to bring the LC8+ dictionary up to par with the old one
would be to duplicate all the entries that are synonyms. Not sure if that
would be wise, although having synonyms show up would be nice.
