Customizing the first control in the tabbing sequence shortcut key
Summary
By default, application users can type the shortcut key combination ALT + F used to place focus on the first input field on a work object form. Optionally, you can change this key combination.
Suggested Approach
To change the default shortcut used to place focus on the first input field:
- Open the standard WorkFormKeys HTML Fragment rule. Copy it into your application RuleSet, keeping the name.
- On the HTML tab, edit the HTML script for the default focus shortcut key to the key of your choice.
<script>
/*
* To overwrite accesskey shortcut for focusing the first
* input element on the page
*/
var accessKeyFI= "f";
/*
* To overwrite accesskey shortcut for focusing the first
* ERROR element on the page
*/
var accessKeyError= "e";
</script>
- Save the HTML Fragment rule form.
If your internet browser currently uses this shortcut key, the shortcut key for placing focus on the first input field on a work object form will override it.
