Thanks Rhondda. Unfortunately it doesn’t seem that the keys will work for me, even after pasting something else in or saving the entry. Haphazard work arounds, indeed!

 

 

 

Hello Melanie,

 

I contacted GS about this after the Australian National Maritime Museum upgraded to TMS2012. GS advised us it is a known glitch but they did not offer any advice on how to or when it might be fixed.

 

A few staff here have found that typing text in the edit text box first or saving the text entry then permits the function keys to work but it’s a haphazard work around at best.

Hi Rhondda,

 

Uggg.  Very sorry about that one.  It slipped by us, but we are aware it’s already been reported in late Spring and confirmed it’s a problem.

Subject: Function keys in TMS2012

 

Hello Support,

 

We have recently upgraded to TMS2012 and have noticed the function keys in the text entries are not behaving as expected.

The keys do work if test is types in Edit Text box first. Function keys are heavily used in the conservation module and this additional step just makes the conservators data entry take a few more steps. Is there a way to fix this glitch ?

 

Thanks
Rhondda

 

 

Hi everyone,

 

I am currently copying/pasting large quantities of object labels as text entries for various object records, and hoped to put a standardized comment into the text entry’s “remarks” field for each. I created the phrase I wanted as a function key, but alas it seems that I can’t use function keys in the remarks field – they do nothing there. In contrast, I can hit the function key within in the ‘edit text’ box, and then copy/paste into remarks, but boy, I would rather just use the function key within the remarks field itself. Has anyone else noticed this? Is this just “the way some fields are” in TMS?

 

Misery loves company,

 

Melanie
