hi-
I've got what is probably a simple question, but I'm too dense this morning to figure it out on my own.
Don't think so; I had to do this once and the method I used before doesn't work now. I think there is a bug in "selectedchunk". Instead of returning the location of the blinking insertion point, it is returning the clicktext of the locked field. It didn't used to.
I've got two fields on a card, one of which has some text I'm editing, and the other is a locked field with a set of phrases to choose from. What I'd like to do is click (or double-click or whatever) on the locked field to select a phrase and have it inserted into my text in the editing field *at the place I was editing*.
I can get the phrase with a mouseUp handler, and I don't have a problem placing it before the editing text or after the editing text, but figuring out how to set a bookmark and use it as an insertion point is escaping me right now. Anyone have a recipe for this?
This workaround seems to do it, but it is a hack:
In the editable field:
on keydown global gSel put the selectedchunk into gSel pass keydown end keydown
In the list field:
on mouseUp global gSel do "put the value of the clickline into" && gSel end mouseUp
It's ugly. -- Jacqueline Landman Gay | [EMAIL PROTECTED] HyperActive Software | http://www.hyperactivesw.com
