So, today I had a meeting with a young man who is attempting to buck the
trend and do
his high-school programming project using LiveCode against the
disapproval of his
teacher (who admits her objection to LC is because she knows nothing
about it).
Anyway, this chap wants to do some stuff messi
It's a function, so try

Hi Paul
It looks like just what I need and thanks for that, but it does not do the
job in my stack and in the single field stack with one line added:
on arrowKey theKey
put 1 into increment
put me into current_value
if theKey is "up" then
put current_value + increment into the tar

Here is a minimal version of the handler I have:

If you have this in the script of a field:
on arrowKey tKey
add 1 to me
end arrowKey
The continuous addition stops instantly after release. As Jacque mentioned,
how are you doing it?

My understanding of the question is that keydown messages are being
queued and continue to run to exhaustion even after the key is no longer
pressed. I couldn't duplicate that behavior.
The rawkeydown handler below will manage keypresses but won't solve a
backed-up message queue. That's why I
Thanks for the replies guys.
Richmond, sorry I was not clear. It is simpler:
- I click in a field that has a value
- I press arrow key (up or down)
- I want the value to change up or down in that field
- After the value is changed, other actions are triggered, e.g.
setting th
If you're using rawkeydown you can check to see if the key is actually
still down before doing any processing..
on rawkeydown pKey
-- since you're checking specifically for arrow keys, you can use pkey
as the first part of the filter..
if pkey is among the items of "65361,65362,65363,65364"
I may be a bit stupid, but as far as I understand you are trying to do this:
1. You keep an arrow key pressed down,
2. You do other things with other keys while the arrow key is pressed down.
I cannot begin to try to answer your question until you either
confirm what I have written or say that

I have a field with a number in it. when focused, I want the value to go up
and down with the up/down arrow keys. The trouble is that if I keep the key
down, it traps multiple keydown messages that continue after the key is
released.
How can I ensure that message are terminated as soon as arrow ke
