hi all. I have been seeing that when pasting text into a field then exiting the field, closeField is not getting sent to that field. Here are a couple handlers for your frontScript to deal with that. It only works with fields whose name begins with "old" otherwise this would trigger the script editor field and editable datagrid fields, and really slow things down.
/* If a user pastes something into a text field, then leaves the field, closeField is not triggered. These two handlers are the workaround for that. Only fields beginning with "fld" are considered. */ on openField put long id of the target into pField if char 1 to 3 of the short name of pField is not "fld" then \ pass openField set the savedtext of pField to the text of pField pass openField end openField on exitField put the long id of the target into pField if char 1 to 3 of the short name of pField is not "fld" then \ pass exitField if the text of pField is not the savedtext of pField then \ dispatch closeField to pField set the savedtext of pField to empty pass exitField end exitField Bob S _______________________________________________ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode
