Is this implemented in Rev?
I made it work in HC by creating transparent text fields the size
and shape
of some selected text, and with the commandKey down, so that the
selectedText
can be harvested, fill that field. It worked on mouseDown, and the
field
tracked the mouseLoc until the mouse was released, dropping the text
into the
mouseLoc. A real kluge, but it works.
Do I have to do this in Rev, too?
Craig,
For many things, like dragging text between fields, it Just Works™.
Try it. For dragging objects within a card, check out the grab command:
on mouseDown
grab me
end mouseDown
Then handle the drop portion on mouseUp.
For more complex drag and drop operations, including dragging objects
between windows, there is a whole set of nice tools. I haven't had
occasion to need them yet, but I'm sure others will chime in. And the
late great Eric Chatonet wrote a very nice tutorial on drag and drop.
