add a blank row on ctrl+b

marcusa007

I am able to add a blank line to the top of the table when I use the new button and hit create without entering any data.
I would like to do the same thing without having to switch to the mouse and click to open up the new form by using a key combination like ctrl+b. I have tried using addRow() but wasn't successful.

I have an ID row that I have set to hidden and in my field_model id is set->(false) which I think was causing the error 'DataTables warning: table id=raw - Requested unknown parameter 'vendor_billing.billing_id' for row 0, column 0`.

Is it possible to insert a new row without this function having to set the id field? My is set automatically in the DB.

Thanks.

If you have the button working for this, then you could just use Button's keyboard activation.

Is there a way to skip past the pop up form and initiate the create from the table view directly?

Sure - use the create() method in a custom button and then just submit it without any user interaction.
