Re: Getting a field name

[Klaus Major]

Hi Jim,

this mail also did not make it yesterday evening, somehow...???
Molto misterioso :-)
...
Klaus,
...
What I think is needed is to to be able to solicit the "mouseControl 
of stack ....",
to be able to direct the mouseControl function to the stack of 
interest not the stack
of the original target.
I believe that Wouter found the same problem.
Sorry, looks like i misunderstood your problem...

But someone suggested the use of a frontscript, which might be a good 
idea...

Just guessing:
Create a button "XYZ" in your palette with this script:
on mouseup
  global the_last_clicked_object
  put the long name of the mousecontrol into the_last_clicked_object
end mouseup
And then add this to your handler:

on mouseup
  answer "Click on the application field." with OK
  if it is empty then exit mouseUP
           insert script of button "XYZ" into front
  wait until the mouseclick
           global the_last_clicked_object
           ## do whatever you wnat with it...
           remove script of btn "XYZ" from front
 end mouseup
Well, as i said, this is a quick thought, not tested, but sounds 
logical to me ;-)

Jim
