Ken,
Thanks for this. I was looking for some sort of deselect line thing
and hadn't found hilitedLines. I'll make my first foray into the land
of Bugzilla.
With setting hilitedLines to empty I still see a brief flicker when I
click and release just below the last line and it is still possible
to click in exactly the right spot so that a click and drag will
highlight the lines as you move up and down the list. So, I put the
hilitedLines to empty in my mouseUp handler, too, so the user knows
to try again.
I also tried placing the clickLine in a variable and trapping for it
in the mouseMove, mouseStilldown, or dragMove, but none of them
really eliminates the problem -- the selected line just flickers as
you move up and down the list. I couldn't think of other options. If
you know of something else I could try, please let me know.
take care,
randy hengst

Click to highlight the choices to make sure things work as expected,
then leave choice 1 or 2 highlighted and click in the blank area
below choice 3. Using very small increments, click in the blank space
below choice 3 and move up until it highlights. If choice 3 is put,
try again using smaller increments. There is an area just below the
line where choice 3 will highlight, but the clickline reports empty.
Rev used to have a bug where if you clicked in an area below the
choices, the last choice would automatically highlight, but the
clickLine will still be empty. This has been fixed, but it seems
there's still this bug left over. Because of the earlier bug, I've
always put in an explicit "set the hilitedLines of me to empty" in my
mouseDown trap when the clickLIne is empty. This is of course a
workaround, and I still think you should log the bug in Bugzilla, but
it works for me:
on mouseDown
if the clickLine is empty then
set the hilitedLines of me to empty --<< add this
beep
else
put the value of the clickLine
end if
end mouseDown
