[FIXED] Glyph properties > Mappings tab > Altl A not working

[jamadagni]

Glyph Properties > Mappings tab. We are allowed to enter the mapping value in the appropriate spinbox. The accelerator Alt V takes me to that spinbox. But once I have typed the value, the accelerator Alt A for "Add" does not add the mapping. Please fix this.

Using FC 6.5 build 270.

Thanks.

I can confirm the issue — Tab, Enter will accomplish the desired result until this is fixed.

This particular bug is not applicable to FontCreator 7, but there are some new issues with access keys for the Glyph Properties Toolbar, which though not initially active like a dialogue until focus is given to it, does still have access keys:

1. There is no access key for Codepoints.
2. The access key for RSB activates the field for LSB, as does the access key L
3. The access key for AV (advance width) cannot do anything since that is not a data entry field — it should be used for Apply instead.
4. Set left side-bearing at x=0 has no access key — S could be used for that.

We will fix the accelerator characters, and make sure pressing the Enter key will trigger the Apply button.

Confirmed fixed in FC7 build 371.
