Create a new rectangular field with four lines of 9 pt. type on 12 pt. leading - 48 pixels tall. Default margins are 5. 1. Try to set the margins to zero. Half of the leading on the top line disappears. Width margins seem to be tied to height margins, which makes no sense to me. I can find no way to set either set of margins to zero. Is there a way? 2. Type something in the first line of this field. Hit the return key three times; the cursor is flashing on line four; all is well. Hit the return key again; the field scrolls; the cursor is on line five; the info on line one is invisible; and the only way to get back to seeing line one is to delete lines (there is, of course, no scroll bar on a rectangle field)! Rectangle fields should not scroll! Right? I don't want the user to put a five line address in a four line address field. 3. I can prevent the scrolling if I check "Tab on Return". This works all right for a plain field or a one line field. But, if i add a 1 pixel border and check "Three dimensional" on this four line field, the cursor will no longer go into line four. I can only fix this by increasing the height of the field (unacceptable, 4 lines of 12 pt. leading must be 48 pixels, 3 lines must be 36 pixels, etc.) or reduce the margin to 3 - which cuts off the top of the first line again. This problem seems to be directly related to #1.
(Using OS X 10.3.5, TiBook 400, 1 gig of RAM) What I want is a std., non-scrolling, rectangle field, with 3D, a one pixel border, the ability to type into all lines, the height of the field to be 12 times the number of lines in the field, and (on some fields) the ability to auto tab without losing the last line of the field. Is there a simple way to do this? I appreciate your assistance.
