Another option might be to write an external that does the polling and dispatches a message when the shift key is pressed, and there might be other methods of course. Hopefully someone else has a better solution.
Either way, unless rev adds the feature sounds like you may have to bite the bullet and figure out a less than great method. As far as "on shiftkeydown" if you do go with the loop method you can of course dispatch your own messages but this still requires polling so its all a matter of semantics at that point. _______________________________________________ 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
