How do I limit the scrolling width of a table field? V4.5.2

Post by quailcreek » Sat Jun 18, 2011 6:29 pm

Hello,
I have some table fields, not DataGrids, that have from 3 to 7 columns with the tabs defined to the widths I need and the width of the field set accordingly. The fields contain data which needs to be filled in or edited by the user. When the tab or right arrow keys are pressed the field will scroll beyond the right side limit of the field. How do I prevent this?

Hi quailcreek,

you can set the maximal editable columns in the properties inspector for the table field under table

That should take care of that
