Avoid field break when pressing enter in a field on a page

Posted on by Yael Suarez 115

Hello community first of all thanks for taking the time to read my question that I have, And share your knowledge with me

I comment on my situation


I did a development in business central this contains a pageextension with a new field in which a barcode is scanned and the value I put in this field and I run all my development in the onvalidate trigger  but when scanning the barcode it executes an enter to start the trigger code onvalidate

and the next field of the page is passed, is it possible to make it stay in the same field when doing an enter?

Since this way I would avoid clicking on the field before scanning many products

Thanks again for your time and knowledge. I am waiting for any response.


good day

    When you talk about the other fields you refer to all the fields in the header of the page

    I would have to make a page extension with a modify to all the fields that are seen on the page?

    My bad. That property would have to be false on the other fields too. That way the cursor can’t move from the position you sit it in

    Thanks for your time look I did the following

    But at the time of scanning, it continues to go to the field below, it does not stay in the field that I indicate.

    I developed a similar page and I used this to stop the cursor from moving around and hitting enter: docs.microsoft.com/.../devenv-quickentry-property
