Triggering a script using the return key

[evancooney]

Is there a way to trigger a script using the return key? Specifically, type into a global text field, and when the user presses return, a script is triggered.

Thanks,

No... but a PAUSED script can be restarted using the <Enter> key -- the key on the numeric keypad, as distinct from the <Return> key on the alpha keypad.

Strictly speaking the Return key puts new lines in a field. It's the Enter key that exits the record and unpauses script, though this behavior can be changed in FMP 7 I believe.

Here's a plug-in which will allow you to trigger a script from a calculation, which means auto-enter or validation can trigger it.
