    Keypress detect

    Hey everyone, last week i download a wizard called "Conversational Mach3" or someething like that, and immediately wanted to change the layout with Machscreen editor. The wizard itself works fine.
    My problem is how things are done, or the sequence in which you have to do, so that a new gcode line is added in the Gcode.
    You first enter via keyboard whatever you want in the dialogue box and to have it write in the teachfile, you have to press the button "add gcode line". Then you click with the mouse to reset focus back on the dialogue box and you carry on.
    What I wish is to do, is have the dialog box detect a keypress "enter", and have it automatically resume focus in the dialog box after it finishes writing the new code in the teachfile. Is this even possible?
    I've pulled my hair out, as vb scripts don't work at all in dialogue boxes.

    Just use {shift/tab} to activate the input line.
