Exit Record/Request Alternative?

[pscherr]

Is it possible to simulate clicking on the layout or layout background (i.e. clicking outside the field into which data was just entered) in FMP 6.0?

The "Go to Field []" step might help. But what's the problem with "Exit Record/Request"?

If you want to refresh portals, I found a scripted "Go to Portal Row [Next]" followed by "Go to Portal Row [Previous]" works as well as changing into Preview mode and back to browse mode.

The problem is, I'm running a script that executes after changing the field value generated by a popup menu.

But the script results don't really "take" until I click onto the layout.

The calculation to execute the script was created in the "validate by calculation" definition of the field, and calls a plugin named Ozium Events. So the problem may be on this end.

I use oAzium quite a bit, to get a script to run set "Zoom Level to 100%"

I just threw together a quick test of a popup field:

If [test popup = "OK"

Show Message ["OK WAS SELECTED"]

else

If [test popup = "NO"]

Show Message ["NO WAS SELECTED"]

End If

End If

Hope this gives you an idea, when a popup is selected with a script attched it will run as if you set Zoom Level 100%. So depending on how many selections you have in your popup you can script the out come.
