I've created a search card in EPDM for the storeman to use on a tablet PC. However, the green search button is just too small and he keeps missing it with his finger.
Is there a way to either increase the size of the default green search button or create a custom button on the card that will run the search?
Hi Prasad.
That's not quite what I need, although it is interesting for the future.
Here's an image of my search card. Once the user has entered the "filename" they can click the little green button at the top to run the search. I need to either make that button about 4 tomes larger or make "Button 1" perform that search.
The search.exe method used in the link you gave launches another search window which, is not what we need.
This search will be performed by people with basic PC skills so needs to be very easy to use and stay within the one window.
I'm guessing you're using Win10......
F5 will do the force the search function as well.
Yes we're using Windows 10.
I just tried F5 and it did nothing.
Why is it that simply pressing enter after typing the part number into the search card doesnt always run the search? Occasionally it'll run but most of the time it does nothing other than play a windows notification sound.
It is frustrating the enter key does not work in the search card, but only work in the standalone search tool.
Any chance anyone has come up with a solution for this yet? I would like to do the same thing, ideally having the button be on the card as shown above.
Hi Phil, I think there are ways you can do this in Windows by adjusting the DPI settings. An alternative method is to create a PDM Search shortcut on the desktop - chekc out this article for details on how to do it:

Hope this helps
