Key to move to next line in horizontal lines study settings?

In the settings for the chart study Horizontal Lines, after I type a value into the Input Value cells for a line, I'd like to advance to the next line down so I can enter a value there. I've been unable to find a key to advance to the next line, so I've been using the mouse to click in the Input Value cell for the next line, but having to move from the keyboard to the mouse for this is less than ideal. The obvious candidate for such a key would be DOWN ARROW, but it is apparently mapped to RIGHT ARROW (and UP ARROW is mapped to LEFT ARROW) when typing values into that window. Is there some other key that performs this action? (If there is no such key, would you consider changing your code so DOWN ARROW and UP ARROW do the obvious things instead of duplicating the function of the RIGHT ARROW and LEFT ARROW? It would be really convenient to not have to use the mouse to switch cells for each value I want to enter.)

Thanks in advance for any help with this, and keep up the good work (I've been a happy customer for close to one million years).

There is no key that will do what you are wanting. Those windows are just not setup for this.

We are working on replacing those windows with our new windows (similar to the other settings windows that already exist in the system, such as Chart >> Chart Settings.

After that change, then we will have to see if there is a way to do what you want. But it definitely will not happen until after that change.
