BUG: Can't Use 3-D GET Fields in Visual FoxPro for Macintosh

MORE INFORMATION

The "3" function code is not documented in the FoxPro 2.6 for Macintosh "Language Reference" or in the Help file. It is a check box in the Field dialog box for an Input (@...GET) field in the screen designer. Selecting this check box produces the PICTURE "@3K" picture clause when the screen is generated. Note that you can use the "K" function code to select the entire field on entry.

Steps to Reproduce the Problem

1. With the Visual FoxPro desktop screen visible, issue the following commands in the Command window:

         x=SPACE(10)
         @ 2,2 GET x PICTURE "@3" SIZE 1,20
   						

   Note that the GET field does not have the 3-D effect.
2. Repeat the above step in FoxPro 2.6 for Macintosh. Note that the GET field has the 3-D effect.
