onAction event with fields in portals

Classic Servoy

I have reported this before but this is an annoying bug (I think).

I try to fire a method through the onAction event with a field on a portal. This doesn’t work (also not with rc6) whatever I try.

Hope you can help me with a bugfix or a work around!

Thanks,

Marcel

portal scripting (elements etc.) is not supported yet:

That really is a shame… And, on the other hand… Why can’t I fire an action event on a field but can I with a button?

If I would play ‘a dumb blond’ I would say: what is the difference?

BTW having said this I will make it a button with tags. That should do the trick doesn’t it?

onAction on a text_field is fired when hitting enter
