Script triggers

* * Script triggers are always bound to user layout interfaces. For data tables or fields. Only the interface can be triggered.

* * If a layout or object contains a trigger, there will be a trigger icon in the lower-right corner

* * When an event is triggered, there is only one trigger that will be executed.

Layout-level triggers

**onrecordload: Trigger after loading record

**onrecordcommit: Sent before the record is changed

The actions that will be submitted are: Toggle layout or Record press ENTER

**onrecordrevert: Triggered before a record restore

**onlayoutkeystroke: Triggered when a keystroke is accepted in the layout

When the user presses the button, the operating system snaps first, then the Filemakerpro, then the Onobjectkeytroke, and finally the Onlayoutkeystroke.

**onlayoutenter: Trigger script after user enters layout

A practical use of onlayoutenter is to perform certain actions when a user enters a layout

**onlayoutexit: Trigger script after exiting layout

**onmodeenter: triggered after entering browse \ query \ Preview mode

**onmodeexit: triggered after exiting browse \ query \ Preview mode

**onviewchange: Trigger script when changing form, list, switch between views

**ontabswitch: Triggers Before changing the tab panel

If you want to trigger an action on a panel, you can combine get (Triggercurrenttabpanel) with Get (Triggertargettabpanel)

Object-level triggers

**onobjectenter-Triggers a script when the object is active or focused

**onobjecttroke-An action is triggered when an object is active and a keystroke is received

FILE-level triggers

* * Set method file--File option--Set trigger

* * for triggers prior to 11 events, Return:false can be used to block the run. After the event, you cannot use Return:false to block it.

**ontime Trigger

* * Activate scripts within a repeating time interval, install OnTime scripts using script steps

---if it is a layout or object-level validation, the script trigger will not be triggered if the data is a change made through other means, such as scripting.
