scneophyteParticipantMy forms are quite long and, when editing a form field that is far down the page, when hitting enter, the form reloads and takes me back to the top requiring me to move the screen back to where I was working.
This reduces efficiency and is very annoying!

BrendanKeymasterWhich version of Tap Forms are you referring to? And which view? Default Layout? Custom Layout? Multi-column list view?
Although focus is removed from the field when you press the return key, it doesn’t appear to scroll the content. At least not in the few tests I’ve just done.

scneophyteParticipantApologies.
– Current version (on Beta, but issue occurs on 1774 too)
– Default ViewSteps to repeat:
1. Design a form that contains enough fields that you must scroll down the page to see them all
2. Select a field towards the bottom of the screen
3. Activate the Form Inspection Panel
4. Edit the Field Title for the field select in step 2Expected behavior: focus and view remain static
Actual behavior: form is reloaded and the view is now at the top of the formFebruary 17, 2018 at 11:17 AM #27394
BrendanKeymasterAh! When you said “editing a form field” in your original post, I thought you meant entering in data into that field. Yes, when you change a field name, Tap Forms reloads the form, which causes the scroll position of the table to be put back to the top. I’ll see if there’s something I can do about that.

BrendanKeymasterOk, I’ve changed it now so that Tap Forms won’t scroll to the top when you’re selecting records. It will if you add a new record. The record selection code was also triggered when you renamed a field because the Default Layout has to be rebuilt when you rename, rearrange, add, or delete a field.
