ENTER key on Venu 2

I have an app that provides an important function via the ENTER key. However, I am now getting feedback from Venu 2 users, that this key (on the Venu the upper right key, A key) has no effect. On other watches, especially on the classic Venu and on the simulator there are no problems.

My code in the BehaviorDelegate

   function onKey(evt) 
    {
        if( evt.getKey() == KEY_ENTER )
        {
        	// call my function ...
            return true;
        }
        return false;
    }

Does anyone have any idea where the problem is and how to solve it?

Are your devices up to date? Not sure what "call my function" does, but could it be you need a WatchUi.requestUpdate() so that the display shows something has changed?

Yes, the devices are up to date. The function shows a configuration menu

WatchUi.pushView(new MenuView(), new MenuInputDelegate(), WatchUi.SLIDE_IMMEDIATE);

The configuration menu is not shown on some Venu 2 watches.

Are you also using onSelect() by any chance? On venu/venu sq/venu 2 devices, that will also be called with an upper button press in addition to a screen tap.

For a configuration menu, you may want to switch to onMenu(). On a venu/venu sq/venu 2 devices, that's a long press of the lower button. On "button" devices, that's typically a long press of "up"
