Trap enter key

[d.bernaert]

Hello,

I would like to trap the enter key for saving a record in an update screen.

This works fine when trapping the #13 key.

But I would also like to be able to keep using the enter key in a memo or html edit control without invoking the #13 key on form level.

Is that possible?

 

Thx,

Dominique

Hello,

If I didn't understand correctly, please specify, but this post can help you:

Hi Sherzod,

I have the property on the form set to 13 -> submit.

When I'm in a unidbmemo and I press enter, it fires the submit, posting the record in the database.

I've added the following function in the Keydown in extEvents:

{
  if (e.getKey() == e.ENTER) {
    e.stopPropagation();
  }

But it still executes the submit.

Thx,

Dominique

Hi,

I will check, but if possible, can you make a simple testcase for this?!

Hi Sherzod,

here included a small testcase.

Grtz.

Hi,

Can you try this approach for now?

procedure TUniForm1.UniFormReady(Sender: TObject);
begin
  UniMemo1.JSInterface.JSCode(#1'.inputEl.dom.addEventListener("keydown", function(e){e.stopPropagation()});');
end;

Solved this way, thx Sherzod.
