Primary Key on Edit Grids?

[mramos]

Is it possible to add some primary Enter key behavior to edit grids? similar to how primary buttons are set on forms?

I've got an edit grid (local data) where users can edit more than one field before clicking a button to then apply changes. the button is disabled until a change is made.
I'd like to allow them to hit the enter key.. Is there currently a way to set this up?

currently in version .3.20251117.0

Currently, the edit grid is not listening for the Enter key. Are you asking if, when a user is editing a cell and presses Enter, it should trigger the “Save Changes” button?

yes, similar to a form

In the next 6.3 update, if the edit grid is using cell editing, a new widget property will be available under General labeled “fireEventOnEnter.” If it has a value, the application will fire a local event when the Enter key is pressed while editing a cell in the edit grid. You can then listen for that event and perform any needed actions.

That'll work. Thanks, Johnny!
