Richard Thomas Posted December 7, 2019 Posted December 7, 2019 I have an address record with seven fields. To enter the data, my users like to tab through the fields in a set order. One of the fields is set to pop up list with a value list of world countries, the first of which is 'United Kingdom'. My problem is that if I click in the field with the mouse, the popup is triggered and the value list is displayed for selection with the mouse. However, if I tab through the list, when I tab into the field the popup is not triggered so the value list of countries is not displayed for selection. How can I set the layout so that tabbing into that field will show the popup list?
comment Posted December 7, 2019 Posted December 7, 2019 Is this on macOS? https://support.filemaker.com/s/article/Pop-up-Menu-fails-to-open-when-entered-via-a-Go-to-Field-script-or-tabbed-into-on-a-Mac-1503692913405?language=en_US Note that users can press the space bar (Esc. on Windows) to open/close the pop-up menu.
Richard Thomas Posted December 7, 2019 Author Posted December 7, 2019 Thank you! Beautifully solved by changing from popup to dropdown. Nice one.
