We’re working on an application with a standard Header–Detail structure, where the Detail section includes a list view containing multiple columns. In this list view, users need to add multiple rows and move smoothly from column to column while entering data.
At the bottom of the screen, there’s a Comments field that dynamically displays comments related to the currently active field.
The challenge we’re facing is that activating a field currently requires a double-click, which disrupts the intended user experience and slows down data entry.
We did explore using Quick Entry mode as a potential solution; however, it didn’t meet our needs. There are several on-screen validations, styles, and features in the current setup that we don’t want to lose as part of any proposed change.
There was a prior system enhancement that allowed single-click activation for boolean fields when moving from row to row by adjusting a setting. We’re hoping to find a similar feature or behavior that would enable single-click activationacross all field types in the list view—without sacrificing the existing UI and validation logic.
Has anyone implemented or found a workaround for this type of interaction?
