Re: Right click menu on Windows
This sounds like your popup menu is grabbing the focus from the field. What happens if you set the traversalOn (is that the right property name) to false for that menu button? So I just tried now and with the mousedown handler moved from the text field to the stack the handler opens the popup menu but I lose the selection so there is nothing for the cammands to work on now. Maybe I'll figure that out soon. - Brian Yennie Chief Technology Officer QLD Learning, LLC (941)-928-7127 [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- ___ use-revolution mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution

The keyboard commands for Control-C, and Control-V work perfectly but when I do a menuPick from a popup menu it didn't work. I spent hours on this. Perhaps I missed something. I just wanted a right-click menuPick to work on the selected text in a field of the same stack. It was suggested to use an offScreen button like this: Create a popup button with the menus you need and put it offscreen... (I think hiding the button does only work on a mac...?) Then script: on mousedown whatmouse if whatmouse = 3 then ## right- or control-click! popup btn "you btn here" end if end mousedown In the right-click menuPick I tried copy & paste. Perhaps I'll try one more time. I gave up on turning the locktext or textlock true and then false. So I just tried now and with the mousedown handler moved from the text field to the stack the handler opens the popup menu but I lose the selection so there is nothing for the cammands to work on now.

I have a perfectly fine Text editor for my import window that works fine with Control-C, Control-V, Control-X, Control-Z, and Delete. So trying to call these native handlers from a right-click menu has caused all kinds of problems with firing off the mouseDown messages. So I'll just add (answer "Use Control-C") messages for menuPick items in the right-click menu. Why do you want to simulate a key combination? Wouldn't it be easier just to have your popup menu use the "copy", "paste", "cut" & "undo" commands directly?
