I use a table form with 'Table view (locked)' property to show purchase order lines.
When I use TEXT_AREA as display type for the text field, and not TEXT_FIELD, I can not just go with the TAB button (from field Article No.) into that field and type right away.
Instead, I have to grab my mouse and click into the TEXT_AREA, and only then I can start to type.
When I use TEXT_FIELD, the mouse is not needed, but then I can not show more than one line in the text field.
As that is a much needed basic functionality for any ERP-like systems, I wonder if somebody figured out how to avoid the additional mouse click.
I am sure my users will complain.
I already tried to set selectOnEnter to true or to fire an explicit requestFocus() on the onFocusGained()-event, but with no result. We use smart client.
