Reference:
A cursor moving touch switch can be created automatically when creating a
numeral input element or a (character) string input element.
If [Auto Arrange] is selected, it is not possible to move a touch switch indepen-
dently. To move a touch switch independently, deselect this attribute.
If a cursor moving touch switch is created later independently, the touch switch
can be associated with a specific input field. Specify the touch switch and se-
lect [Draw] (menu bar)
→
[Associate With]. To disassociate the touch switch
from an input field, select [Draw] (menu bar)
→
[Disassociate].
Cursor movement among data input fields is also possible using control code
input touch switches for which arrow-symbol key codes are set.
