Brett,
I still can't get focus to work on check except in the case of a do [
focus my-check ]
and then only on the first check. I liked your space key to turn check
on/off and tried to generalize as follows:
stylize/master
[ space-check: check with [ feel: make feel
[engage: func [face action event]
[ either all [equal? event/type 'key equal? event/key #" "]
[ system/view/vid/vid-feel/check/engage face 'down event]
[ system/view/vid/vid-feel/check/engage face action event]
]
]
]
]
view layout [
my-check1: space-check
my-check2: space-check
]
The first space-check works as expected, but when I move the mouse over
the second, click it on-off a few times, the first still gets toggled
when I click the space key.
Any ideas on what I'm doing wrong?
