For those watching this thread, there is a verified bug when focusing out of
a field after doing a put into
selection: the exitField message is sent instead of the closeField
(http://quality.runrev.com/qacenter/show_bug.cgi?id=7354).
As a workaround you will need to trap this...

Hi Hugh
Can you elaborate a bit on the problems that you see with my method? I
am using it in some places, and plan to use it in the future too, so
any backdraw would be of interest to me. Unfortunately I have no clue
what you wanted to say. What arrays? Who changes them? I'm not loosing
Hi BvG
Upon reflexion and trying your handler with both 2.9 and 3.0 in Windows, I
prefer your simpler solution over my use of the templateField (although it
was an interesting exercise in itself). The loss of paragraphs was the
result of my original methodology and manipulations of the

Hi Hugh,
What about this:
on commandKeyDown theKey
if theKey is V and the selectedField is not empty then
lock screen
paste
put the text of the selectedField into the selectedField
unlock screen
else
pass commandKeyDown
end if
end commandKeyDown
(I haven't tested it)
A little something to keep in your Scripter's Scrapbook for when you need
it... How do we ensure plain text when we copy and paste from another
program?
Pasting text from a Browser or an email often results in an unwanted text
format that doesn't match the field's default style. This is annoying
I'm not sure this holds true for win or linux (or older rev versions
then 2.8.1), but on mac os x, when there's styled text in the
clipboard, both the html and the text values of the clipboarddata
array hold their respective value.
Therefore this proved sufficient in one of my projects:
After a few seconds of thinking (amazing what that can do for you...),
I realised that the script as posted is pretty much useless. I
transformed an existing script from a rawKeyDown handler of a field,
omissing mission critical changes. So for having this done on every
field on a card or
Thanks Hugh,
This was very informative. I have not used the templateField before
since I did not think I had a need for it but after this great
explanation I think I might find some uses here in the near future.
Thanks again,

How would this particular menu item and its script magically be
created in an app?

Hi Stephen,
If you've copied something, paste unformatted is already in the Edit
Menu of 3.0s IDE.

I know that, but it's useless when one has custom menus in the app.
