I am working with a grid where auto-edit is applied. In the documentation (https://docs.thinkwisesoftware.com/docs/sf/process_flows_actions#add-row) it says the ‘add row’ process flow action should not be triggered, but it does when the row is added by pressing enter when the cursor is at the last column of the grid.
Is this a bug? I would like the process action to be triggered when the row is added regardless, but I believe that should not happen as is explained in the documentation.
What is the intended behavior here? And is there another way to trigger a process flow action when a row is added on an auto-edit grid?

Auto-edit grid can trigger process flow

Hi
When the grid remains in edit- or add mode, the process flow cannot be followed up on. In this situation, the Windows GUI chooses not to start the process flow. If the process flow starts after adding a row even though the user is now adding or editing another row, this would be a bug in the Windows GUI.
Switching to the Universal GUI will cause the process flow to always start, but a potential follow-up by the GUI may be discarded when the user is adding or editing another row.
Does this help?

This answer gives me the intended behavior, but it does not explain fully why in the documentation it says that process flows can not be triggered by ‘add row’ via a grid in auto-edit mode, but it does actually happen in the windows GUI in the specific case I described.
Hello Freek,
As Anne has said, if the windows gui starts processflows in these scenario’s, then that is a bug in the Windows gui. The intended behavior for the Windows gui is that it shouldn’t start processflows in these scenario’s
