How do I get dragStart message sent?

2007-05-17 Thread Michael D Mays

I have a locked field with the following handlers:

on mouseDown
  set the dragdata [text] to me
end mouseDown

on dragStart
   beep
  pass dragStart
end dragStart

I never get a beep. In the Message Watcher I see
mouseDown
dragLeave
dragEnter
dragMove

What do I do to get the dragStart to be sent?

(What are the numbers in parentheses at the end of each line in the  
Message Watcher?

What are the messages types and are they handled differently?)

Thanks,
Michael

I think text has to be selected. Is there a selection?

Good question. Milliseconds? Some kind of timing I think, since it 
changes depending on how fast I move the mouse.

Message types are primarily either command or function. It's 
informational only and has no impact on the MW. Types and object 
references are only displayed if Handled messages are not suppressed.

I said that backwards. Handled messages *need* to be suppressed...or 
whatever it is when the checkbox is ticked. ;)
