Of the six examples offered in the samples stack try example 1 "sample

change the script of field 1 - or one of the other fields - to accept a
right-button mouseclick to distinguish between normal list behavior and
dragging from the list.
add "on mousedown x
if x is 3 then"
to the field script and you could then have normal list behavior and at
the same time dragging behavior when the other mouse button is being
pressed.
Thanks Wilhelm. This sort of confirms what I suspected; I have to make
the user indicate manually how the list field should behave.
I have the index/list field working, and I also have the dragging
working. I was hoping I could get the field to know whether the user
wants to click to select a line, or click to drag the text. I saw
dropped or mixed messages while trying do both at the same time, so I
guess I have to ask the user to manually indicate their intention. Your
suggestion to use different mouse buttons would work. Or maybe the user
could hold down a key while dragging.
Maybe I should just change the interface entirely and forget about
making a single field act in two different ways.
