You can save the insertion point (i.e. the selectedchunk) when you leave
the second field, and then provide a handler to insert text at that
saved point; and of course call that handler when needed
e.g. in your "second field, have

I have 2 fields, the first from which I take the mouseText, the second into
which I place that text. Trouble is, I want the placed text to be at the
insertion point I had before clicking outside that field.
Can someone suggest a way to preserve the insertion point in a field as one

Thanks for the hint to import the snapshot from the group. I followed Jim's

I was just tinkering with this and it wouldn’t work until I changed the “import
snapshot" from card to “import snapshot” from the group. But that’s a very cool

Start with a card having a field and a button.
1. Create a GRC retangle the same rect as the card.
2. Set its opaque to false.

Hi Charles,
if this is on a Mac, it’s a security feature - apps cannot access folders
outside of their own bundle unless the user explicitly grants permission. If
you add an "answer folder” command to your program, and ask the user to select
folder B, then your app will be granted access to it
