Phil - thanks for the suggestion but I just tried it and no-can-do. For
some reason, and this is a Mac-only behavior, when I mouseDown on the
desktop I can't see any messages at all which are sent to Livecode. The
suspend message is sent if I mouseDown on another stack, but not on a
file on the desktop or the desktop itself.
Let me know if anything else comes to mind.
Thanks,
Ray

Have you tried using 'suspend' instead of 'mouseDown' and
'suspendStack'? Should work the same on both platforms (famous last
words!).

On Windows the instant there is a 'mouseDown' on the desktop the
current stack window goes inactive, thus triggering the suspendStack
message. I use this to create a field which then accepts dragDrops.
However, this is different on a Mac. The current stack window on a
Mac waits until the mouse comes up on a desktop click, thus defeating
my scheme which creates the field to accept a dragDrop as soon as the
mouse goes down on the desktop.
Any ideas anybody on how to trap for a mouse down on the desktop on a
Mac?
Many thanks,
Ray
