(Better late than never :) You could temporarily disable all mouseDown events with:
set the mouseDownScript = "dontpassevent"

If you happen to be using the mouseDownScript, you'd need to save and restore it.

Happy Friday!

On this topic, anyone know of a good way of preventing the escape key from registering and quitting the projector?


the ExitLock = TRUE

is not a good choice, as it prevents the window's close box (or red ball on OSX) from closing the window (= abnormal behavior.)

Catching (the keyPressed) for charToNum(27) doesn't seem to work either.

To get my app to behave more like an "app", I'd prefer it if the escape key didn't instantaneously kill the projector, but that the rest of the ways to quit continued to work normally.

Anyone got a technique?
