Description schulten 2003-07-09 10:18:25 UTC 
The approach to import form fields as input fields makes absolute sense. The 
problem is, that we do not have a usable form now, since input fields are not 
part of the tab order, and the input field dialog is no "enter text - hit 
return" dialog. There are other problems as well.
Proposal:
- Include input fields into the form tab order (=pop up input dialog)
- Select text in input dialog on opening, make OK button the default on return, 
add scroll bars to text box, make input dialog resizeable
- switch off design mode after import
- switch on automatic control focus
- as a mid-term target, make input fields editable in place rather than using a 
dialog

Duplicate, was not part of the my issues query, so I added it twice.
