Return Key doesn4t make my defined KEY-ENTER trigger to fire.

I4ve found that the trigger that fires when I press Return is KEY-NEXT-ITEM,but this doesn4t resolve my problem,because the tab key also fires this trigger.
I want to navigate within textitems with the tab key and that when I press return key make an action on the values entered in the items.
mila, PJR

You have to perform key mapping to get the Key-Enter trigger to work.
Open your forms90\fmrweb.res file in a text editor. Find the line:
10 : 0 : "Return" : 27 : "Return"
Change it to:
10 : 0 : "Return" : 75 : "Return"
Save the file and run the form again. The key-enter trigger should then fire when you press the Return key, but not when you press the Tab key.

How to make 'Key-Enter' trigger (when clicked on enter key)work like 'F8' key?

Hi . I have another question to be asked.
Oracle Forms 6i.
I have a form in which DEFAULT&SMARTBAR is the menu and there are no push buttons.
In the form, there is a 'field' named as 'ID No'. After entering 'ID No' in the field and click on 'Execute Query' button from the 'DEFAULT&SMARTBAR' menu, all the details of that respective 'ID No' gets displayed in all the other fields. Even if i press 'F8' all the fields gets displayed with the values.
But i have a requirement, i.e. after entering 'ID No' and click 'Enter' key , i want all the values to be displayed.
So i created a 'Key-Enter' trigger with the following code:
BEGIN
EXECUTE_QUERY;
END;
But after entering 'ID No' and click 'Enter' key, the values are not getting displayed.
What can i do to make this happen?
Thank You.

It depends how your form is created. If your ID item is part of the base table block, you can do this.
On your ID item, create a KEY-NEXT-ITEM trigger:
if :system.mode = 'ENTER-QUERY' then
execute_query;
else
next_item;
end if;
Now
- User clicks on enter query (via smart bar icon or F7).
- User enters ID and clicks <enter> key to execute the query.

Use Return Key to trigger function?

I've got a little form in a movieclip where the student is to
do some simple subtraction, then click the Record button to enter
the data into a table. Problem is that if someone types in the
answer, they naturally want to hit the Return key to enter the
data, however, it instead puts a carriage return in their answer
and when they try submitting with the Record button, it checks
their answer and it is now wrong since the added carriage return
does not match the answer they should have. Is there any way to
make the Return key trigger the recordIt() function? Here is my
code:

Here is what I ended up adding:
stage.addEventListener(KeyboardEvent.KEY_DOWN,keyDownListener);
function keyDownListener(e:KeyboardEvent) {
if ((e.keyCode == Keyboard.ENTER) && (diameter.text
!= "") && (difference.text != "")) {
recordIt(e);
}

Key-enter trigger

dear all
i want when user press enter key then exit from the form and if
press tab then do some other operation
wiating for quick reply

dear you
I had to do that before. What I did was use the KEY-NEXT-ITEM
for whatever you want to do with the tab key and put a push-
button EXIT and on this button change its property "Default
Button" to Yes. This property makes that the code you put on
WHEN-BUTTON-PRESSED trigger of this button will fire when you
press enter. For the same block it can only be one button with
this property to yes.
I hope this helps

Enter/return key issue.

We have a new Macbook Pro and the enter/return key does not work with software unless we push the shift key at the same time. It only does this on one user as well. Other users on the computer the enter/return key works fine. As an example - if you are done with a sentence in Pages and you hit the enter/return button to go to the next line nothing happens unless you also hold the shift key down. Any ideas?

I have found a solution that works in Excel 2011. But you can try to see if this solution would work for Pages also. Remember, where the instructions below refer to Excel substitute it with Pages instead. From what I am understanding you want to click the RETURN key and move down to the next line in the document. Hopefully it works.
If you want to click the RETURN key and have the cursor go from the current cell to the the next row in Column A (i.e. The cursor is in cell B2, click RETURN, the cursor moves to A3) do the following:
1) Click on the Apple logo in the upper left corner of your desktop.
2) Click SYSTEM PREFERENCES.
3) Click KEYBOARD.
4) In the KEYBOARD box click KEYBOARD SHORTCUTS.
5) Click APPLICATION SHORTCUTS from the left menu.
6) Click the + (plus sign) that appears to the left of the Restore Defaults
button.
6) In the box that appears select EXCEL for the APPLICATION you want to apply this shortcut to. (if Excel does not appear on the list, click on OTHER at the bottom of the list, click MICROSOFT OFFICE, then click EXCEL).
7) In the MENU TITLE field enter the name you would like to give this shortcut (i.e. ACTIVE CELL). Click the RETURN key(enter) to continue.
The cursors will now appear in the KEYBOARD SHORTCUT field. Click the RETURN (enter) key once. The shortcut will now appear in the KEYBOARD SHORTCUT field.
9) Click ADD.
Now go into the spreadsheet and test the shortcut. Enter information into the spreadsheet into a number of cells in the same row (move between the cells either with the TAB key or RIGHT ARROW), When you are done entering your information, then click RETURN. The cursor should now move to the next row in COLUMN A (i.e. The cursor is in cell B2, click RETURN, the cursor moves to A3).
Hope it works for you as well as it did for me.

Key-ENTER

Dear all,
I have a question on Key-ENTER event.
If I want to fire a function after user enters some text on Text Item and Press the "ENTER/RETURN" key, which trigger event that I should put the code in?
Dummy

You should write your code in the Key-enter trigger. It would also help if you write the following code in the key-next-item trigger of the item:
do_key('ENTER');
null

Enter vs Return key?

Sorry if this has already been asked, but I was wondering - what is the difference between the return key and the enter key on my keyboard? For me - I hardly ever use the real "enter" key near the command key. I always use the regular enter key above the shift, but yet it is actually a "return"? I also noticed that holding the FN key while pushing return makes it the "enter" key because it is in the gray font on the key. Any info on the differences of these keys? Thanks!

Not that I can tell (usually). It may make a difference in some applications, but I always use the Return key, too.

OneNote 2013: Font changes when pressing Enter / Return key

I have the same problem as this guy (who didn't get a relevant answer): http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/office/en-US/233833f7-dde8-414d-bdca-604ed8d57667/onenote-2013-font-changes-when-pressing-enter-return-key?forum=officeitpro
I set my default to Calibri 14, but every time I press enter (I make a lot of bullet lists) the font changes to Calibri 11.

Hi,
Did you change the default font after you typed a few words in a note container?
Setting the default font in Microsoft Office OneNote affects text that you type in new note containers only. It does not affect existing text or text that you add to existing note containers.
If you want to change the font in an existing note container, you need to change it manually under
Home tab > Basic Text.
Thanks,

InDesign CS5 - Enter and Return keys give unexpected results

I've been using CS5 for just a few days (Mac Pro, Mac OS X 10.6.3). I've noticed that the Enter and Return keys aren't always behaving as expected. Enter doesn't give me a column break, shift-Return doesn't give me a line break but a new paragraph, and more often than not I can't select the default option in a dialog with either Return or Enter. I've just read cpsid_84345, which says this is an issue in German and Swedish language versions, but I'm using English. The 7.01 update doesn't seem to be available. Any advice?

That the KBSC files are XML doesn't guarantee faultless migration from one version to the next, probably because Adobe just forgot to cope with importing KBSCs from previous versions. It's great that InDesign offers you such flexibility with the KBSCs, but it's terrible that the implementation has been so sloppy in at least the three last versions (maybe earlier versions, too, but I try to repress the memories).
Some people have been asking Adobe to make KBSCs scriptable. This would enably you to maintain a small database with KBSCs which a script could read and feed into a new version of InDesign, or redo a KBSC file after it has become corrupt, or whatever minor or major mishap.
The more people ask for this the better: go to http://www.adobe.com/support/feature.html and request script access to the KBSCs.

Backspace and return keys make phone inoperable

Whenever I try and try to make a correction using the backspace, the backspace does not stop and erases the entire message. Or if I hit the return key, it doesn't just return to the next line, but repeatedly returns making an infinite number of new lines.
Basically this problem makes the text, messaging, emails and so on useless - I can read things, but can't use the key board at all.
I have tried every setting I can find on the phone, nothing seems to correct this.
What is the fix?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

I had a similar problem with the backspace and the letters A and P it was so annoying.
The fix is simple:
Go into Settings > Accessibility > Magnify > OFF
This should solve the problem. If not then you have a different kind of issue.
Hope it works

Need ENTER / return key on LEFT side of keyboard

I need an enter / return key (or key combo) on left side of my keyboard. Any idea how to do that?
Thanks, in advance!

Startly's QuicKeys is probably the least troublesome way because some programs ignore the system settings.

I can't open my mail unless I use the Enter/Return key or go to the File -Open Message

Up until yesterday I could open an email just by double clicking the message. Now if I want to open a message I have to use the Enter/Return key or go into FILE and press Open Message.
The only thing different since yesterday morning is that I decided to turn off File Vault --that process took all day but finally finished and that's when I ran into problems with mail.
I've checked my mail settings and they are the same as before. Have OSX Yosemite 10.10.1 installed.

''SuperSluether [[#answer-671002|said]]''
<blockquote>
Is this problem in Firefox? It sounds as if you are referring to an email program such as Apple Mail or Mozilla Thunderbird. As far as I know, you can't open emails in Firefox with File > Open Message because there is no such option.
</blockquote>
Thank you for your response. I finally found out why this was happening. It had to do with the Trackpad settings for my Mac. I adjusted the track speed to a slower speed as it was set quite fast. This seems to have fixed the problem :)
I’m not too computer savy so sometimes things can be a little confusing trying to figure out whats what and where to look for solutions.
Thank you

HT201178 when using apple bluetooth keyboard with iPad, hitting the enter/return key while typing in iMessage only adds another line not 'send' the message? is there a setting to change that somewhere?

Everywhere that I've checked it is not possible to do this. I would like to even do this using the vkb. I hate having to stretch my thumb all the way up just to send a message. It's messaging, not a report or email. Seems backwards. Hopefully some day Apple can add this option.
