The problem was here was indeed the hilite. Putting put "hello world" into the selection or put "hello world" after the selection in a button works.Putting one of the above into a popup button doen't work. So, is there a way to somehow "store" the selection before it get lost? Can i insert text into a field from a popup button?
You have a couple of choices. The easiest is to just turn off auto-hilite and substitute your own handlers. On mousedown, hilite the button, on mouseUp and mouseRelease, unhilite it.
The second way is to use a local script variable to store the selectedchunk. When the button is released, reselect the stored chunk:
local sStoredChunk on mouseDown put the selectedchunk into sStoredChunk end mouseDown on mouseUp select sStoredChunk end mouseUp on mouseRelease select sStoredChunk end mouseRelease -- Jacqueline Landman Gay | jac...@hyperactivesw.com HyperActive Software | http://www.hyperactivesw.com _______________________________________________ use-revolution mailing list use-revolution@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution
