Changing Field Properties
In addition to changing a field’s size and location, you can change
other properties of the field in the Edit Field Properties dialog box. To
access the Edit Field Properties dialog box, with the field selected,
from the menu bar select Edit and then Field Properties.
The Edit Field Properties dialog box changes depending on the type
of field you have selected. The illustration above shows the Edit Field
Properties dialog box for a date field on a Production Form. Chapters
2 (for card design fields), 3 (for Production Form fields), and 4 (for
report block fields) describe the properties of each field in detail.
You can format the text properties of multiple text-based fields at one
time. See the online help topic, “Format text properties for multiple
fields” for step-by-step instructions.
Cutting, Copying, and Pasting Fields
You can use standard Windows operations to delete a selected field
from your Production Form, card design, or report block, copy a
selected field to a clipboard, and paste a copy of a field that is on the
clipboard into your Production Form, card design, or report block.
You cannot copy and paste fields between the Production Form and a
card or report block.
