Hi All
I tested several way to obtain a "spotlight tool" (like on OSX). It work well on OSX and windows but i meet problems with the deletekey which delete two chars for one input.
Here is a stack works with a list of more 4000 entries (in a stack customprop)
Is there someone who found a way to avoïd this ?
Kind regards
Jean-Marc

Re: Ios spotlight deletekey problem
Hi Jean-Marc,
I'm not sure I understand this correctly. Whenever you press the delete key on your keyboard, 2 instead of 1 characters are deleted? Just like that? Don't you have a script that handles rawKeyUp message for example? Can you post that script here?
Kind regards,
Mark

Hi Mark,
Thanks one more for your help.
Yes, you're understand me correctly.
Sorry, t "stTestSpotLight" is a simplified part of a big stack and it works well on IOS (I have not tested on ios before posting)
It seems the problem is elsewhere in my stack
Yes i use a rawkeyup message for write in the in the target field.
After rawkeyup, the script set the contents of 20 groups (one grc, one img, one fld) but
it never works with the target fld except at the end to select after the text of the target fld.
I search and i'll come back
Kind regards
