We are using Microstation Connect update 14 and we are having trouble editing 2 datafields in a cell.
The cell is a revision block cell and it has 2 datafields that are nested in the revision block cell.
In V8i we could right-click and it would jump to the next datafield for editting - in Connect, right clicking does nothing. There doesn't seem to be any way to toggle between the 2 datafields.
I opened a service request and it was immediately labeled as a defect and may be fixed in next version. Defect Report 1107554
Has anyone found any workarounds for this?
Thanks,
Regan

Does a double-click do anything?

Hi Jon,
A double-click on the data field opens the edit data field but almost always on the 2 char datafield, its very difficult to get to the single datafield for editting.328629-1-4.dgn
I attached the DGN file.

When I double-click on any datafield the text editor pops. I'm zoomed close in...
Check that your element selection is set to Individual...
MicroStation CONNECT Update 14.2
as you move your cursor over the data field you will see it switch between the two data fields being selected. When the one you want is highlighted , then select it.
Try moving your cursor back and forth along the data field and see the different ones highlight.

Jon,
Yes, my selection settings are set to Indivigual and New.
I should of said its the left end of the cell that has the 2 data fields.
