HI!
im tryng to set into a textarea (3 rows ) a done listener to fire an action when done is pressed.
At the begining my control was a textarea because i need that the text accomodate himself to the control. because TextArea has not the donelistener a i cant get that functionality
second i pass to TextField but when i set the setSingleLineTextArea(false) the done listener doesnt fires because the "Enter" key adds a line and not fires the listener.
what can i do?
thanks

Hi, done listener is a feature of text fields only since it relies on the single line behavior. We wouldn't know when to fire it in multiline mode.

Just verifying, you are aware that action listener should work fine for most of these cases right?

That's problematic. You can try and use data change listener on a multiline text field and detect \n characters.
