Hi,
I've noticed that the copy/cut/paste commands work automatically when
you use the Command-Key short cuts, e.g. if you have an Text Field
and you select the text within it, you can copy or paste into that
field. This seems to work in the IDE and in the Standalone. My first
question is how/where is this action handled? Can I stop this action
happening on certain fields?
In the docs, check out
* copyKey message
* cutKey message
* pasteKey message
Example:
on cutKey
cut
end cutKey
Thanks, I must have missed these somehow.
use the the following (using either IF statements or CASE statements)
handler in the code for the menu object:
on menuPick varSelected
if varSelected is "Cut" then
focus field "editfieldnamehere"
cut
else if varSelected is "Copy" then
focus field "editfieldnamehere"
copy
else if varSelected is "Paste" then
focus field "editfieldnamehere"
paste
end if
end menuPick

I should have asked the question differently! What I meant to say was,
in a menu handler, how can I tell which field is the current field, and
how can I enable/disable Edit Menu Items based on whether a field is
selected or not? Do I need to put an openField/closeField handler on
each text field and then enable/disable there?
All the Best
Dave
Dave,
I use the focusedobject in my edit menus to determine whether the
selected object is one of the objects where I want to allow copy/paste
etc.. I have a list of allowed objects that I compare it to.
