Set Speed/Feeds

I can not get VM5 to use a G0 for the transfer feedrate (Tf). I set it in the Speed/Feed dialog to use rapid for this parameter, yet the code that is generated when I post is using a G1 at the maximum rate set for the post on the horizontal transfer move. The vertical move just before it is a G0. Here is a snippet of the g-code
N32X-0.6303Y-0.1431
N33G0Z0.0655
N34G1X-0.1236Y0.1242F120.

On to an annoying nit.

Been meaning to bring this up. The tab order in the speeds/feeds dialog box (and most other dialogs) are totally scrambled. Right now when you try to tab through them you jump all over the place. Woule be real nice to have the tab order move from the first box on down through them in sequence.
