Richard, Like others, I'm not sure what you're looking for.
If you want to run a script after the user clicks outside a field, use the closeField and exitField messages. You could also add a graphic to the group, behind all the controls of the group, and add a mouseUp handler to this graphic. As mike wrote, you can disable all controls while the group is visible. That would make your interface less confusing for the user. -- Best regards, Mark Schonewille Economy-x-Talk Consulting and Software Engineering Homepage: http://economy-x-talk.com Twitter: http://twitter.com/xtalkprogrammer KvK: 50277553 Use Color Converter to convert CMYK, RGB, RAL, XYZ, H.Lab and other colour spaces. http://www.color-converter.com On 26 jun 2012, at 17:54, Dr. Hawkins wrote: > I have a group that pops up under certain circumstances to gather more > fields and merge them for the target field. > > I have it's termination behavior working correctly--when it terminates > > The problem is that I can click into a field outside the group without > triggering it, at which point it could keep values that could > "contaminate" another groupl. > > Do I need to watch for mouseDown for any other target, or some such? > Check for the new focuse somehow on both exitFIeld and CloseField? > > It seems that there *should* be an exitGroup or exitGroupFields type event > > Or something like "if the focusedObject is not a member of this group > then . . ." type construct _______________________________________________ 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
