Navigate(scrEdit, ScreenTransition.None, {locMode: FormMode.Edit})Common mistakes & gotchas
- The context record only seeds UpdateContext-style variables on arrival — it does not itself run the destination screen's OnVisible logic.
- Passing a whole record (like ThisItem) rather than just its key means the destination screen shows a snapshot; re-query if the data may have changed since navigation.
