Toggling the Date with '+' or '-' buttons

Question

In previous versions I could toggle the Register date with the '+' or the '-' buttons, which was very convenient.  But this is no longer available.  One has to hit the calender icon and select the date.  Am I doing something wrong?

Date keyboard shortcuts

Assuming today's
date, May 7th, 2020, is displayed in the date field and you are using standard
US - style dates ...

* "+" advances the
     date by 1 day, 5/8/2020

* "-" subtracts 1 day
     from the date, 5/6/2020

* "t" inputs Today's
     date, 5/7/2020
* Typing 0501 gives 5/1/2020
     (always type it with leading zeros for month and day)
* Typing 123019 gives
     12/30/2019 (no slashes required)
* Typing 12011999 gives
     12/01/1999 (again, no slashes required)
* "m" gives the first
     day of the month
* "h" gives the last
     day of the month
* "y" gives the 1st
     of January of the year
* "r" gives the 31st
     of December of the year
* "w" gives this
     week's Sunday, 5/3
* "k" gives this week's Saturday, 5/9
* typing the same letter again
     advances to the next / prior interval, e.g. ww = 4/26/2020

If you have set your Windows short date format (which affects date format in the Quicken register) to something other than MM/DD/YYYY the + and - will no longer work.
