Possible Enhancement Request?
Posted: Wed Jan 16, 2013 6:17 pm
Hi.
I'm trying to create a downloadable application form (with strict formatting limits using text box controls) and want to include a "budget" text box that utilizes tabs, so individuals filling out the form can include an itemized budget using simple tab formatting/separation.
I know that Ctrl+Tab is used to access tabs within a cell or table; but there doesn't appear to be any way to provide similar tab formatting within a multi-line, limited text box in a form? (I know there is a "multi-line with formatting" text type property for text boxes, but choosing this property setting de-activates the limited text ("Max. text length") property, thus surrendering control of the overall text box size (which undermines the whole point creating of the form).
I've posted this problem in the Writer forum, and was told this might be an appropriate subject for an enhancement request. Is this the place where such requests are submitted?
