Ok, here�s my problem: in my app I have groups that pop-up (not
stacks�groups that include graphics, buttons, fields, etc�) but they are
much smaller than the full window. I don�t want the user to be able
click outside the area of the popped-up group until that group�s actions
are completed. I�ve been trying several things, all of which don�t seem
to be working.
It would seem to me that using �flushEvents� should solve this problem,
but my app just seems to ignore this command and allow the user to click
where ever he/she wants.
Here is an example of my problem (I place this script in the popped-up
group�s script):
On mouseDown
If the clickLoc is not within the rect of me then
Get flushEvents(�all�)
Beep
End if
End mouseDown
The problem seems to persist even if I replace �clickLoc� with
�mouseLoc.� What am I doing wrong with this? Am I using this command
properly? Is there an easier way to solve this problem?
I�ve been trying to use the �exit mouseDown� command [or mouseUp�
whatever] to interrupt the user�s click, but it seems to be ignored too.
I�m not sure what I�m doing wrong with this�
Here�s my temporary workaround� I use a cumbersome if�then statement in
the Card script to identify if the group�s �visible� is true or not. If
it is then I just hide the popped up group if the user clicks outside of
it. Obviously, that�s not the smartest way to go. Help!
