If Esc is selected for Terminate keys, the menu form will be closed without checking the entered data or assigning a value to a variable. If a value other than Esc is selected for Terminate keys, the menu form will be closed after the entered data is checked and the values are assigned to the variables.
-
When function keys are included in the menu form, F1 to F12 cannot be selected as exit keys and do not appear in the Keys list.
In the following cases, F1 to F12 are invalid if set as exit keys, and a warning message appears when the menu form opens:
-
The user defines a function key, but F1 to F12 are already set in Terminate keys.
-
A function key has been defined, and F1 to F12 are set in Terminate keys, in a menu form created using a version of JP1/Script earlier than version 06-71.
