Od course, any your script can follow the event.willcommit

for a joke: mouse exit event changes the string: test ONE / test TWO, and each character entered increases the frame "NextTabField". Space resets its dimensions to the initial 😉

this time the construcion if(even.value) {...} was used in the custom Format field

As the custom validation script of the field use this:

if (event.value) {

// place your code here

}

This code work perfectly but it´s possible to display the next action for example after 10 characters? right now the action is displayed when they write and click out of the text field.

To do that you would need to use the Keystroke event. It's possible, but more complicated. And you need to provide a more detailed description of how you want it to work...

Maybe:

var xx=this.getField("xx");

If (xx.value != "") {your code}

run this script on focus off event
