Disabling Single-Key Shortcuts

Single-key shortcuts are enabled by default. You can disable the single-key shortcuts by going to the Axure RP application preferences at File → Preferences (Windows) or Axure RP 10 → Preferences (Mac). On the Canvas tab, uncheck Enable Single Key Shortcuts. This will allow you to enter text on widgets by selecting and typing without having to press ENTER first (consistent with the behavior in earlier versions of Axure RP).
