Re: Double-clicking text in ACS 5250 session bug

[Vern Hamberg <vhamberg@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Dan

This is a setting in the Hotspots type - in the session click on Edit, 
then Preferences, then Hotspots - the item you need to change - if you 
want to - is one of the last 2. I set this on all the time - I find it 
very useful to double-click on a menu option that behaves as you 
describe. There are also options there to make F-keys into graphical 
buttons. Who knew we have a graphical interface with a black background 
- or other color of choice.

I believe this has been part of the 5250 emulation in the previous client.

Cheers
Vern
