Hi Klaus,

Your proposal would break projects that rely on the ability to copy selected text from a field by clicking on a button or selecting an item from a menu. You really don't want that.

There are sufficient ways to implement an autosave feature. Think of closefield, exitfield, selectionchanged, resumestack, suspendstack, et cetera.

Hi freinds,

I have a question thats on my mind for a long time:
should a "closefield/exitfield" of a field be executed if one clicks a button that has its "traversalon" property set to true (on the same card of course)?

I think yes, but it doesn't, Rev 3.4, OS X 10.5xxx.

According to the docs, "traversalon" will "catch" the focus which implies that the focus will be taken away from other objects, like fields in this case and should thus fire a "closefield/exitfield"
handler!?

I also found that sometimes a "mouseenter" of an object in another NOT active stack (sic!), when you move the mouse on the monitor, gets fired, but a "closefield/exitfield" in the active stack does not. This makes it alsmost impossible to implement a reliable
"autosave" feature...

Any insights and opinions welcome.


Best

Klaus
