Single-line text fields

Single-line text fields are used to enter arbitrary text and numerical values, e.g. for names of elements, descriptions or comments.

Pressing Enter while a single-line text field is in focus has the same effect as clicking the OK button.

If the user logged in to Tillypad XL Manager has a language pack containing more than one language, single-line text entry fields will have a button at the far right. Clicking this button will toggle visibility of the multi-lingual entry table, with a text entry field for each language in the user's language pack. Only single-line text fields can be multi-lingual.

The multi-lingual entry table can also be toggled by pressing the left Alt button and the down arrow together on the keyboard when a multi-line text field is in focus.

Pressing Enter while the cursor focus is on a field in the multi-lingual entry table will close the table and return focus to the text field.
