Navigating on a Large Page

EC
in FileMaker Go for iPhone & iPad

Featured Replies

With FM, I used 'Go to Field' for navigating to any spot on a large layout. I made the text 2 pixels and hit and locked the field. Things work fine. Now, with FM Go, the Keyboard opens automatically and I'm trying to find a way to navigate. Go to Object works fine navigating horizontally to a tab, but will not scroll the page (unless I'm missing something).

Is there any way to navigate like this without activating the keyboard?

Thanks!

Arrgh! It is annoying how the keyboard pops up every time you navigate to a field in Filemaker Go. I'd much rather have a keyboard up/down button to pull it up manually, or a script option.

If you put a one second pause after your 'Go To Field' and then add a 'Commit Records' step it will make the keyboard go away, but it is still annoying.

Thanks. Yes, that works but, as you say, not very elegant. Field Behavior needs another attribute... 'Activate Keyboard' Y/N
