ExecuteActionOnReturn=true Not firing

[Eitan]

Hi.

 I have a RadTextBox defined like this:

<telerikPrimitives:RadTextBox x:Name="SearchWord"
     FontSize="18.667"
     TextWrapping="NoWrap"
     Watermark="Search Word"
     VerticalContentAlignment="Stretch"
     HorizontalContentAlignment="Stretch"
     Padding="12,2,2,2"
     ActionButtonVisibility="Visible"
     VerticalAlignment="Center"
     Height="80"
     ActionButtonTap="SearchWord_ActionButtonTap"
     InputScope="Search"
     ExecuteActionOnReturn="True" />

 

private async void SearchWord_ActionButtonTap( object sender, EventArgs e )
    {
    await SearchTheWeb();
    }

 

I was expecting the SearchWord_ActionButtonTap to fire when pressing the Enter (right arrow key)?

However this doesn't happen. What am I missing here?

Thanks,
Eitan

Hello Eitan,

Thank you for contacting us.

The ActionButtonTap event is raised only when you tap the action button. In your case you can use the KeyDown event:

private async void SearchWord_KeyDown(object sender, KeyEventArgs e)
{
    if (e.Key == Key.Enter)
    {
        await SearchTheWeb();
    }
}

I hope this helps.
