Text Boxes
Text boxes are the areas where the user can type in alphanumeric data such as names or dimensions. A text box will usually have a label to tell the user what to enter.
When the user first opens a window which contains text boxes, the first text-box on the window is current and a text editing cursor (a vertical bar) is displayed in the box. A text-box often contains a default entry (such as ‘unset’) when first displayed. Some text boxes accept only text or only numeric data, and entries with the wrong type of data are not accepted.
To enter data into a text box:
•
Click in the box to insert the text editing cursor.
•
Type in the required data, editing any existing entry as necessary. (The user may need to delete the existing entry first.)
•
When the user has finished, confirm the entry by pressing the Enter (or Return) key. Any text box with an unconfirmed setting is highlighted by a yellow background.
