editing page content - lost focus - lost data

Post by yogi108 »

Hi,

I came over a situation where I lost often data, really annoying, and could'nt reproduce the error.
Now I got it:

I am editing the page content of one PDF adding new content to an existing content - cursor is IN the content, have multiple PDF files in tabs open.
Clicking with the mouse on the tab of the next document - just for information (no action like copying etc.)
Clicking back the tab of the first document, cursor is not seen - if hitting the left or right arrow key the NEW written content
is gone and the focus away from the text object.

Anyway, I know it now but the question:
Is it possible to ask if the changes of the content are to be dumped?

If I only edit page content and press ESC, the changes are saved!
So it seems it has to do with loosing the focus from one doc to the other....

Thanks a lot,
Kind regards,

Hi Patrick,

Thanks for your response - Version 6.0, Build 321.0
should be the latest ...
Could you see the video from my last post?
+) It is important that you are in a textbox writing some text,
+) Mouseclick to the next tab
+) Mouseclick to the previous tab
+) press left or right or up or down arrow key - new written content is gone.
if pressing ESC, the content is SAVED, as in a normal edit.


If it helps I take the time for a Teamviewer session,
kind regards,
