A Modal form with no form level events closes with:
Enter=1
Escape=2
As long as there are no buttons with focus, otherwise close will be suppressed.
To run some more code during enter and escape use:
OnCancel and OnOK
No form closes needed.
Returns:
Enter=1
Escape=2
To keep form up when enter pressed:
Use OnCancelClose and return true to suppress enter.
Enter is suppressed and escape returns 1, because OnCancelClose function has a reason parameter with 0 being enter and 1 being escape.
Enter suppressed
Returns:
Escape=1
Once OnCancelClose event has been selected, OnOK and OnCancel no longer have any affect.
Any coding then needs to go in the OnCancelClose event.
Like this:
(defun c:Test_One_OnCancelClose (Reason /)
(cond
(;;enter
(= Reason 0)
t
)
(;;cancel
(= reason 1)
(dcl_Form_Close Test_One 2)
)
)
)
Returns:
Escape=2
Escape can be any thing you choose so stay with 2 to be consistent.
Since OK is like enter would be, if it were not suppressed, and Cancel and ESC are the same thing, set Set button OK to close form with 1 and button Cancel to close with 2 to keep everything consistent.
(setq formReturn (dcl_Form_Show formName)) <<< corrected 10/27/2013 was:Open is:Show js
(cond
(;; OK
(= formReturn 1)
returnVal1
)
(;;Cancel X ESC
(= formReturn 2)
returnVal2
)
)
This helped me understand what is going on. I hope it helps you.
Merry Christmas,
Jim
