created 17 years ago

Which will improve data entry speed
Proposed Solution:
consider FocusedWhenInEditMode attribute or something like that

This includes:
- use Return to jump from field to field (Layout - Provide an easy way to switch between the Tab and Enter keys to focus controls on a form)
- hit a key to save data
- hit one key to save the entered data and create a new record within the same window
- have a few fields keeping their values for the next record
- automatically pre-calculate suggestions for several other fields
- skip prefilled fields in the tab order
- skip readonly fields in the tab order
- SystemModules - Make it possible to edit multiple records in an editable ListView at once and save the changes only when needed
ListView - How to provide multiple or batch records editing via a property grid or a separate DetailView
Other features that contribute to this are How to enable fast data entry in multiple rows for ListView on the Web (ASPxGridListEditor)?
I will be happy to see here your thoughts about how to make such things easier, but currently our Support Center doesn't allow everybody to add comments.
Please, create a new suggestion if you want to extend this list and refer to this suggestion (S90802). We will consider and count it here.
Thanks, Dan.
