Tech Tip: Shortcut to Open Form Method From Explorer
PRODUCT: 4D | VERSION: 19 | PLATFORM: Mac & Win
Published On: February 7, 2022

There is a shortcut to open a form's form method directly from the Forms tab in the Explorer window.

With the Project Forms or Table Forms list expanded, simply hold down the option (Mac) or alt (Windows) key and double-click on a form in the list view. With the option or alt key held down, performing the double-click will open the form method instead of the form editor. This shortcut is equivalent to performing a right-click -> Edit form method.



Note: In Binary mode, this shortcut will open always open the form method. In project mode, the form method will not open if it does not exist.
