Overriding view/edit functionality in RTC List

In the RTC list you can set the CardFormID to determine the 'card' page that is dispalyed when you select view or edit by right-clicking on a list item. I have a strange scenario in a custom modification where the table used for the list view is different from the card view I want to display.

Now I can easily call this from a button on the Action Pane but ideally I would like this to be seamless and allow the user to select view from the right-click menu. Is there any way to but custome code behind this option?

    Ah but that won't work - because the card and list are based on seperate tables, it will open the card then throw an error because it can't work out the record reference.

    I explain how to override the behavior of Doubleclick in the list and hitting ENTER in the list by creating an action and giving it the shortcut key RETURN.
    Now there is one comment, that this doesn't fly in the spanish version (probably due to translation of RETURN).

    You cannot customize the build-in View/Edit behavior, but maybe you could create an action with RETURN and remove the CardFormID (haven't tried that)

    Cool solution, but i have a question: why changing the order instead of using next(-1)? is there a particular reason?
    and also, a tip to make the page change a little bit faster: close the old page after opening the new one (i don't think there are risks in doing this)
