Enter Data with Recent Typing
Using the Recent Typing gallery or task pane, you can quickly view and select from a list of recently typed items, and send the selected string to the active document. This eliminates the need to manually re-enter information, saving time, and reducing errors when entering commonly-typed commands or field data.
Notes:
- This feature is not available with VT sessions.
- Typing is not captured in hidden-text fields such as passwords.

To do this |
|
Open a previously saved Recent Typing file. |

Save the contents of the Recent Typing task pane as a file (.RRTL). When you close your session, your recent typing items are not maintained unless you save them to a separate file. |
|
Delete the selected item. |
|
Clear all of the contents at once. |
|
Put the task pane into auto-hide mode. This collapses the task pane against the side of the application frame. (To re-open the task pane, mouse over the side of the frame.) |
Note: You can use the keyboard to locate (and select) recently typed items in the list. For example, press the A key to locate the most recently typed item beginning with the letter A.
