Problem In Part 1, you have set up a form with several fields. At the press of a button, a popup list appears that allow users to select from the list. In Part 1, user must select with arrow key and press Return.
Now you would like to allow users to select with double-click as shown below:
Solution
- Set up the form and the dialog as described in Part 1.
