ACTIVE

Allows the object to be placed in focus.

Objects placed in focus are receptive to actions performed by the user using the keyboard and/or mouse.

ARROW_KEYS

Defines whether or not the user can use the vertical arrow keys (up and down arrows) to modify the value of the attached object's VALUE property.

The ARROW_KEYS property can only be used if the attached object has an entry area (such as an entry field object or a value list dropdown object).

Where this is the case, the value of the attached object's VALUE property can be altered by pressing either of the arrow keys, provided the cursor is inside the entry area.

The value change depends on the Adelia type and on the cursor's position in the entry field:

DATE

if the cursor is positioned over the two figures representing the day, the arrow keys will change the day, one unit at a time,
if the cursor is positioned over the two figures representing the month, the arrow keys will change the month, one unit at a time,
if the cursor is positioned over the four figures representing the year, the arrow keys will change the year, one unit at a time.

TIME

if the cursor is positioned over the two figures representing the hours, the arrow keys will change the hour, one unit at a time,
if the cursor is positioned over the two figures representing the minutes, the arrow keys will change the minutes, one unit at a time,
if the cursor is positioned over the two figures representing the seconds, the arrow keys will change the seconds, one unit at a time.

TIMESTAMP

if the cursor is positioned over the two figures representing the day, the arrow keys will change the day, one unit at a time,
if the cursor is positioned over the two figures representing the month, the arrow keys will change the month, one unit at a time,
if the cursor is positioned over the four figures representing the year, the arrow keys will change the year, one unit at a time,
if the cursor is positioned over the two figures representing the hours, the arrow keys will change the hour, one unit at a time,
if the cursor is positioned over the two figures representing the minutes, the arrow keys will change the minutes, one unit at a time,
if the cursor is positioned over the two figures representing the seconds, the arrow keys will change the seconds, one unit at a time,
if the cursor is positioned over the six figures representing the microseconds, the arrow keys will change the microseconds, one unit at a time,
with all other types, the arrow keys will modify the setting of the step value.
