Problem:

Documented as follows:

The configuration parameter MOUSE-ENABLE adds mouse support. Clicking the left mouse button anywhere within the current input field causes the cursor to relocate to that position. You do not need to add new dialog code: the behavior is instantly available on existing screensets when this parameter is set.

Syntax:

[NO]MOUSE-ENABLE

Properties:

Default:

No mouse support.

Resolution:

Enable Mouse Support has no effect on UNIX but will work on the DSCHAR port to Net Express.

This can be seen by viewing the Dialog runtime config file $COBDIR/dialog/dsdef.cfg

* [NO]GOF-TO-OUTFIELD          [No] Allow cursor to GOF into output field

* IGNORE-NUMERIC-SETCUR     Ignore SETCUR value on entry to numeric fields

* MOUSE-ENABLE                       Enable the mouse (No effect on Unix)
