B4J Question why wont events fire

[IslandMedic]

I am using a textfield. I use the designer to create the events, action and textchanged. when I run the code and put a break on the events they are never called. I am wanting when a user hits <enter> in the box after entering text, I want to validate the text. the action event seems like the right place to do this. What do I look for to figure out why these are not getting called?

i tried a simple app to test it out to make sure I am using it right, and I am able to get it to work, so it has to be the interaction with my other code. I am not sure if this is an issue but the form elements are in a layout file that are assigned to a tabpane layout.

thanks

Can you upload your project (File - Export as zip)?

OK, so the event was firing, I had my break point on the sub dostuff_action() and then the next line was a if statement for the who sub. So what was happening is that when I stepped the if failed and dumped out of the routine right away, making it look like the event wouldn't fire. Note to sell don't put the break point on the sub name line.

thanks
