Initial Cursor Placement on Menus

The cursor on host menus can initially be placed at the COMMAND line or at the choice entry field (the underscore next to the first entry on a menu). COMMAND line placement is the default.

Changing the initial placement of the cursor applies only to CA Gen menu panels. If you want to use the extended selection feature (1.2.3), use COMMAND line placement. Trying to use extended selection with choice entry cursor placement causes the path to be truncated to a single option number.

Follow these steps:

1. Select the Environment Specifications option on the CA Gen Main Menu and press Enter.
2. Select the Panel Specifications option and press Enter.
3. Type MENU in the cursor placement for menus field and press Enter.
