According to the notes we are can use the submit event to trigger a function upon pressing Enter or Carriage Return (keycode 13). Not 100% sure about both keys as I suspect they have different values. I'm using the UI5 API version 1.38.4 so it should work as the 'submit' event was introduced in version 1.33.

Anyway, I have something like:

 <input id="something" values ="{rock>serialno}" submit="returnEntered"/> 

in my XML view code, and in my view controller I have something like:

returnEntered: function() {
//Do something
}

However, when debugging, this function is not being called, or the submit event is NOT being actioned/triggered.

I know there are other ways of doing this using standard JavaScript, but, I would like this triggered from a specific Input field on the view, and ideally using the built-in UI5 options for view/control.

Resolved this issue.

I had a function like so in my view controller:

returnEntered: function(oEvent){
	this.onMySearch(oEvent);
}

and in my view XML I simply had

<Input .... submit="returnEntered"/>

But this is something that I originally had in my code, and refused to work. Eclipse can be a strange beast sometimes.

Anyway, all is now okay. Thanks to all those that responded.
