Can I change key press to another key?
I have a dropdown control that has yes/no options. Using the dropdown control, when a user presses the [down] key the first option is set as the value of the control. Since I need a set of actions to run that dynamically alter the current form for each value, I do not want the form to change with each stroke of the [down]/[up] keys. I want to either:
1. Prevent any [down]/[up] key stroke in this control, or
2. Change the nature of the [up]/[down] key to act as if the [ALT]-[down] key has been pressed.
Is this possible with Pega, and if so, how?

You can configure action set with action "Any Key" and "Run Script". In the RunScript you can add a function name say - PreventAction. And add parameter as event to capture the event.
Then in UserWorkForm, you can define this function as
<script>
function PreventAction(e){
var key; if(window.event){ key = window.event.keyCode; } if(e== 40 || e==38){
e.preventDefault();
} }
</script>
I have not tried this but the logic should be similar.
