Hi
Been working several hours with the copy paste solution, but all attempts to
copy selectedchunk (or chunkinfo) to a selected field
(in order to retrieve the selectedtext (with fontspecifications) from there,
to a variable, for further processing) fails.
The variable watcher reports e.g. on Put the clickchunk into chunkInfo : "char 108 to 117 of field 363". But all attempts to copy the thus indicated
chunk gives an elaborate "it" (many level adresses) different from the text in the cell. And nothing gets pasted to the (visibly) selected field. It seems like the
whole table is copied instead.
Could you suggest the scriptlines, which could do the trick ?
You can set the clipboard contents directly without actually copying or
pasting, retrieving either plain text or styled text:
set the clipboardData to the selection -- plain text, the default
set the clipboarddata["html"] to the htmltext of the selection -- styled
text
If all you need is the text and font specs, you can do it directly in a
couple of lines:
put the selection into myVar -- contains plain text
put the effective textfont of the selection into myFont
You can also get any other text properties. Usually there's no need to
actually copy and paste, but I haven't been following this thread so I
may have missed something.
