Is it possible to configure my Survey123 form so that folks entering data via the PC version of the app can tab through the data entry (instead of clicking through)?
Hi Doug,
For now it will just tab or enter to the next input control that can take the focus. Being able to customize this would need to be a future enhancement.
Phil.
Finally got to test today and it is looking good on iOS. Number fields in Grid now are a LOT faster.
I did notice it will not highlight a default value if it is in there. This means if I have to delete the value before I change it. But this also means I can just "tab" through defaults now. Not sure if this is on purpose or which is better yet or if they can be combined.
Can this be extended to drop down fields? It does not auto tab now since the enter just excepts the input. Not sure if even possible but most of my big form is drop downs.
Thanks a lot Phil this will be huge for the new Grid forms I have in beta!
Awesome! Thanks for update!
Hi @JamesKelly4 and @Anonymous User !
This post is old, but my users had the same question and found some additional answers by testing... So I thought I'd share with the class ^^:
On a PC you can :
I noticed that:
- Date fields cannot be activated by the keyboard (they are simply skipped) ;
- Minimized groups cannot be entered/maximized using the keyboard (they are simply skipped);
- on drop-down lists: if the list returned by the search is longer than what the screen shows, scrolling the list with TAB does not display the active values (selection is effective, but you do not see what you selected). Using up/down arrows does not help. So the key with long drop-down is real, really to start the search with an extremely discriminant set of characters.
with kind regards,
Hélène.
