Hi All,

I'm checking if a field was modified, if yes, then I pop a stack canvas to prompt for a reason of changes. But since the program unit calling this canvas has go_item commands, I can't put it on any trigger but on key_next_item to avoid restriction error. But then the user can use mouse (not tab) to go other item or to save and the key_next_item won't fire. Then I decided to call thet program unit in forms commit. The problem is that the canvas disappear after it showed, it's not waiting for an input. It happens in a blink.

Create a 'timer' in the When-Validate-Item trigger and use the When-Timer-Expired trigger to navigate to the other item.
