Hi,
I have a non database multirecord block with 5 text items. I want to add a "when mouse double click" trigger such that when ever users click on any one of the 5 text items, the when mouse double click trigger. which opens a stacked canvas and does some operation. My question,
1. Do we need to copy and paste the "WHEN-MOUSE-DOUBLE-CLICK" TRIGGER to all the five text items?
2. Can't I just place it at the block level, so that that when I double click on any item , it fires? I tried it , it did not work.
The reason being that everytime I have make a change in the trigger. I have to make the change in 5 places since currently I have it on all five text items.
thanks,
Rahul

Thanks Little foot and DJMartin.
DJ Martin- I don't have any other trigger define. I dont have nay message, pause etc in the trigger. For now, I followed Littlefoots advice because,
1. I tried creating the trigger on the non databvase multirecord block at block level, but nothing seemed to happen
2. I notice something really weird, I have a when mouse doubleclick trigger apart from a key next item trigger both having the same code in a text item. Somehow when I run the forms, and say i double click, it raises an error. So go back to the when mouse double click trigger, put a message, random twice and run the form again. - double click, the message pops up and close the form- comment out the messages and save/generate and run again.. everything works fine. But this happens everytime I try to modify forms.
3. Even when I had the trigger associated with all 5 text items, some functionality would not work with one of the text items although all had the same code.
I was wondering if I am the only one facing this issue. There seems to be some bug with the WHEN-MOUSE-DOUBLE-CLICK event in forms6i.
I then tried out little foots advice and that worked better. But still it would have been better to have the trigger at block level.
thanks,
Rahul

Hi DJMartin,
Thanks for the pointer. Yes, I generally have the bad habit of directly making a change and pressing Generate and Saving rather than doing a compile all. I will try to first compile all every time and then generate and keep a watch if the issue occurs again. By the way, does not compiling all and directly generating the form have any known issues/errors ? OR is it just a safety measure that you are mentioning.
Thanks for your help!
Rahul
