Bob,
Cut, copy, paste & clear are available as commands in LC, so maybe simplifying
your Edit menu a little may help, for example…
--The following menuPick handler was generated by the Menu Builder (&
simplified a little).
on menuPick pWhich
switch pWhich
case "Preferences"
--Insert script for Preferences menu item here
break
default
do pWhich
end switch
end menuPick
…It works for what you are describing as far as I can see, although it's not
perfect.
Tested in LC 5.5.5 + 6.6.2 & 7.0(rc1) on Mac OS X 10.9.3
Cutting, or pasting within a field then tabbing out does trigger a closeField
message, but "Copy" doesn't, possibly because the field didn't change even
though the field still closed on tab, it does trigger an exitField.
However, "Clear" doesn't trigger a closeField message for some odd reason, but
it does trigger an exitField, that seems a little inconsistent to me, because
the contents of the field did change before exiting in much the same way that
"cut" changes the field, I realise the "Cleared" text doesn't go onto the
clipboard, but the effect on the field is the same.
So as far as I can see, "Clear" is the only case you would need to add a script
for the lack of "closeField".
If anybody else sees the inconsistency with the "Clear" command as a bug, I
would be happy to make a sample stack and report it, I'd just like to be sure
I'm seeing it right before I do.
