Customize Property Box puzzle

Post by David2416 »

Customize Property Box.jpg
I wish to edit the Electoral Register Entry; it is highlighted (in grey) in the above screenshot and yet the Edit Custom Item ... is unexpectedly greyed out. When I started editing this property box tab yesterday this button was enabled when I added this item. Can anyone explained why is this button now disabled?

If I move to the Ward & Addr: (Custom) the edit button is enabled. What I want to achieve is to move the Electoral Roll related entries to another Tab.

The definitions of Electoral Register Entry are shown in the screenshot below.

Many thanks

For some reason the Electoral Register Entry line is NOT marked as (Custom). I have tried to recreate this scenario and did manage to get a case where after the initial addition of the line it was no longer marked as custom, but I don't know why this occasionally happens. There may be an odd bug here.

However, if you want to move the item to another tab you will need to delete it, rather than just editing it, and then re-enter it on a new tab. Having selected the item you should be able to click the < icon in the centre to remove it.
