Is there a setting to use the 2001 menu in Wildfire?

We're creating a mapkey to delete parameters. If row 23 is "TITLE" and you
want to delete this, Wildfire says delete row 23, while 2001 will delete
"TITLE". This could be a big difference if row 23 is only sometimes"TITLE"
and sometimes "ENGINEER".

Therefore, we'd like to record the mapkey using the 2001 interface instead.

Todd, try using the "Find" command to locate the Parameter and then delete it this way. You shouldn't have to change back to 2001 interface, I'm not even sure if it's possible. The Find command works great within a mapkey.

Hope this helps, Glenn |B)

I looked everywhere in the Find dialog and no where could I find how

to search for a parameter. Could you go into detail on how to find
a parameter using Find?

I have found the exact same thing. The problem still exists in Wildfire 2.

I also have complained to PTC several times about how useless the new parameter
ui is for mapkeys.

Do what I do and have the mapkey do the following:

1. set the new_parameter_ui option to no
2. do your modify thingy
3. reset the new_parameter_ui option back to yes

Randy, sorry I thought that the Find command did a search for Parameters, but it looks like it doesn't.

Yah that method works too.

Good luck, Glenn |B)
