Re: Set focusable property via script? - Answer

[Marian Petrides]

After sending this query, I noticed that if I dwell for any length of 
time with my mouse over button that sets the desired property in the 
Object Inspector, a toolTip came up with the name of the property.  
Thus I found that traversalOn makes an object focusable if it is true 
and lockText makes an object's text locked if true.

So simply putting a temporary button on card 1 of the stack, containing 
the following script  allowed me to lock text in all fields and make 
the fields not focusable:

on mouseUp
  repeat with j = 1 to the number of cards
    go card j
    repeat with x = 1 to the number of fields
      set the traversalOn of field x to false
--make field not focusable
    end repeat
  end repeat
end mouseUp
repeat with j = 1 to the number of cards
    go card j
    repeat with x = 1 to the number of fields
      set the traversalOn of field x to false
    end repeat
end repeat

each field is locked and that it is not focusable.

Is there a way to set these properties from script?  I'd hate to have 
to check each and every one manually.

And, yes, I did look in the dox, even searched but I don't see a 
property called focusable, nor one called locked.

Thanks.
