PRODUCT: 4D | VERSION: 2004 | PLATFORM: Mac & Win
Published On: April 21, 2005

The new Form Editor in 4D 2004 now allows the developer the convenience of drill-clicking. In other words, if objects are layered on top of one another, either using Ctrl-click on Windows or Command-click on Mac OS and drill past the top layer of objects one by one. Furthermore, this feature can be used to isolate a single object within a group. This is useful for making quick changes without the hassle of un-grouping and then re-grouping.
