How to prevent a live break with Text field

Post by UtahCode197 » Fri Feb 21, 2014 6:18 pm

How can I stop the text going on a new line with the Text Entry Field? I've managed to disable the "ENTER" button but still when the text goes over the size of the text bar, it starts a new line. How can I have it so that the text carries on, on the same line??
(I'm not sure if I've made it that clear)
Thanks

Klaus

Hi Rory,

set the "dontwrap" of that field to TURE -> check this option in the Inspector palette for this field.


Best

Hi.

Certainly if you have an editable, field, Klaus has done all anyone could.

What "Enter" button"? Are you sure you are talking about a standard editable field?

Thanks for your replies!
The "ENTER" key on the keyboard is what I meant :)
