ENTER key function on Magic Keyboard?

How can you produce an ENTER key on the Magic Keyboard for iPad Pro? In some applications like FileMaker this key has a different meaning than RETURN. (Return makes a new line in a field, while Enter exits the field and stores the record.)


I hunted for a key combination but couldn’t find it.

It is that normally this would be Fn + return, but the keyboard in question has no Fn key? Have you tried Control Return and Command Return?

Right, it was the Fn on the little keyboard. No the Magic keyboard does not have one. I’ve tried a number of combinations of keys with no luck. I’ll see if I can get help in the FileMaker forums. I’m just afraid I’ll be given a bunch of workarounds that I already know. I’m really just hoping to find it on the keyboard!


Maybe it’ll be something odd like hitting control twice then return, like launching dictation. 🤞


Thanks again.
