Set default button for enter key

Loren Maxwell

Somewhat of a related question for this post:
https://datatables.net/forums/discussion/52211/leave-modal-open-after-adding-record

After setting it up, I have three buttons -- "Cancel", "Save", and "Save and add another".

Is there a way to specify which button will be pressed on the editor form when the user hits the "Enter" key?

By default it presses the "Save" key but I might like to set it to "Save and add another".

No I'm afraid not. The entry key doesn't actually trigger any of the the buttons - instead it just calls submit().

That said, there is an alternative approach you can take. The form-options object has an onReturn option that can be used as a function. You could define that function to be:

function () {
  this.submit( () => {
    this.create();
  } );
}

which should do the job.
