Greetings,
Revolution 2.2.1 on MacOSX How do I set the command line in the message box? None of the documentation or examples I have read covers this. (I have read Receipe for Find field). I am an old Hypercard programmer.
Desired behavior
1) The goal is to allow control-click of a word in a unlocked field to be put into the message box as 'find "textStr', thus the user can simply hit the enterkey to continue to find occurrences.
Not what I want to accomplish...
2) using 'put textStr into to msg' or 'put textStr' adds the word "textStr" to the result pane of msg.
3) using 'put ("find " & quote & "textStr" & quote)' also adds to the result pane, thus the user cannot simply hit the enter key to repeat the find operation.
Eg...
on mouseDown
if the controlkey is down then
put the clickText into temp
put ("find " & quote & temp & quote) --to set the msg
find the clickText -- do the first find here
end if
end mouseDownIs there a message box property to set? Is there a message to send up the heirarchy?
Work around is to just have the user continually click on the found word with the control key down. This could get to be more like a video game, however.
Thanks for your help
