Introduction › Returning to CA 2E

Returning to CA 2E

If you used CA 2E animation to transfer to Toolkit, you can return directly to the CA 2E panel or device design from which you started the animation. You return from Toolkit in one of the following ways:

• If you are editing your Toolkit panel design, press F3 to return to . You will be given an opportunity to save any changes you made.
• If you are simulating your application and have defined navigation, press the key you assigned as an exit key (usually F3) to return to CA 2E.
• If you are using Toolkit to work with your panel design, for example, viewing it, simulating it, or entering data, press the function key assigned for exit or Home to return to CA 2E.

Note: See the documentation for your terminal or computer to learn which is the Home key on your system. In addition, the Home key is designed to position the cursor on the first input‑capable field on the screen. As a result, if the cursor is elsewhere on the screen, you need to press Home twice to return to .

The function to which you return depends on the value specified for the Return to this Device Design option on the Animate Function Panels panel when you transferred control to Toolkit:

• If the value was N, the default, you return to the function corresponding to the last Toolkit panel design you accessed. As a result, the corresponding function is loaded automatically into Open Functions.
• The function loaded is the function whose implementation name appears in the related program name field on the Work with Panel Title Details panel. You can edit the implementation name using this panel. This name automatically defaults when you convert a panel.
• If the value was Y, you return to the function from which you invoked the animation.

Note: If you invoked Toolkit using Toolkit commands, you cannot return directly to .
