Format Tab

Please set the Format tab to stay active when an article is opened to edit. When I am adding content I am going back and forth between RW and the pdf or Word and every time I come back to RW the Home tab is open instead of the Format tab. This doesn't happen in Word nor have I noticed it in other programs that have tabs.

FWIW, it's a side effect of a control with the Format commands losing focus. As a workaround, when you're going back to Realm Works click into a control that allows the Format commands and Format will be active again.

This may, or may not, be related to a bug I reported a long time ago where, if you manually switch to another tab for some reason, after that the automatic switching of tabs seems to be disabled.

Parody I was getting ready to thank you then I read Silveras reply and checked it. Parody it worked until I switched tabs then went back and I'm afraid to say that Silveras bug wasn't fixed.

When I said I had reported it some time ago, I did not mean to imply it had ever been fixed. It has been an ongoing annoyance for me for a while
