Hey, Wow, it's the Richmond school of shovels and primitive stuff at its
worst.
If I have a field that conatins some styled text (let's call it "ff1"),
and I want to shift it
with its styling removed into another field (let's call it "ff2") then
this does the trick in a button:
onmouseUp
gettheplainTextoffld "ff1"
putit intofld "ff2"
endmouseUp
and that, oddly enough, might not be a bad place to get started.
ALTHOUGH (ouch) this does NOT work:
onpasteKey
gettheplainTextoftheclipboardData
putit intofld "ff2"
endpasteKey
and this does not work:
onpasteKey
puttheclipboardDataintofld "ff1"
send"mouseUp" tobtn "Button"
endpasteKey
which would seem to suggest pasteKey is NOT trapping the paste signal at
all.
Richmond.

Using LC9, I want to add a "paste without formatting" (as seen in may
browser edit menus) command and I can't see to figure out how to do it.
My most recent attempt of many still pastes formatted text (with
underlining, bolding, italics, fonts, colors, etc. in place)
*on*pasteKey *-- remove formatting*
*if* theclipboardData["text"] isnotempty*then*
*set*thetextofthetemplateFieldtoclipboardData["text"]
*set*theclipboardDatatoempty
*set*theclipboardData["text"] totheplaintextofthetemplateField
*end* *if*
*paste*
*end*pasteKey
Maybe I just haven't had enough Caffeine yet?
