For anyone who needs to send a notice in the meantime:
I’ve never sent a notice out before, so I didn’t realise until I read this post what the actual problem with them was (group notice panel not accepting text).
I’ve just tried and successfully managed to send a notice using this method:
1. On the Notices tab as normal, click on Create New Notice
2. Press Tab on your keyboard once to get into the Subject box, you can then type it
3. Press Tab again to get onto the Message box, and type that out too (or paste it, etc, whatever you normally do should work)
- Pressing Tab again in the Message box doesn’t have the same effect, it just inserts a tab character, so then to actually send the message…
4. Click and hold down the mouse on the Cancel button, move the mouse off the button, then let go of it
5. Hold down Shift and press Tab, this should move the selection onto the Send Notice button, and you can then press Enter or Space to send it
Feel free to let me know if you have any problems with this, it worked fine for me on Windows, but I’m not entirely sure if it would work the same way on other operating systems etc.
