Trigger Save Button with "Enter" Key in Desktop Mode

Hi everyone,

I was wondering if there is a feature that allows users to trigger a "Save" action by pressing the "Enter" key while in desktop mode. For example, after users have filled out a form, they would like to save their changes by simply pressing "Enter" instead of clicking the save button manually.

Any tips or suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

I think if you enable Auto save in the Form view, it should work.

Check in Setting - View type options - Forms if the Advance forms automatically option helps you change fields with an Enter.

Thank you for your reply. May I ask if this applies to the INPUT() function in an action?

So there is no key or ascii values that it can except as an input() that is more for input values to a column.  Or if you are running a calculation and you want it tested based on a certain column metric or value that would be taken into account during the calculation. Unfortunately appsheets really only have a click system with no other controls.

The only thing I've seen that works a little is the Tab key (next field) or Shift+Tab (previous field).
When you position it on a button, Enter activates it.
