Strike that last remark.
BUT: that script expects one to press the CONTROL key on the Mac
rather than the COMMAND key one usually uses to PASTE,
so how that can be achieved on a Windows or a Linux machine I just don't
know.

Oh: and just to make things even odder than usual, it only works when
the fild "ff1" does NOT have focus (i.e. the cursor is NOT in the field).

However, I, at least, am experiencing great joy just at present as this:

ifKEE is "V" then
puttheclipboardDataintofld "ff1"

popped UNSTYLED text into fld "ff1"

Your mileage may vary: but it's sure worth a try!

Thank you for this.
However, it appears my problem is not with converting the clipboard from
styled text to plain text, but with the "pasteKey" message.
In LC9.0.0 under Windows 8.1, I create a new text stack and add and
empty field and place the following handler in EITHER the card or stack
script
on pasteKey
makeClipboardPlainText
paste
end pasteKey
on makeClipboardPlainText
local tClip, tRawType
if the platform is "MacOS" then
put "public.utf8-plain-text" into tRawType -- OSX
else if the platform is "Linux" then
put "text/plain;charset=utf-8" into tRawType -- Linux
else if the platform contains "Win" then
put "CF_UNICODETEXT" into tRawType -- Windows
end if
lock the clipBoard
put the rawClipboardData[tRawType] into tClip
set the rawClipboardData to empty
set the rawClipboardData[tRawType] to tClip
unlock the clipBoard
end makeClipboardPlainText
And set a break point on the call to makeClipboardPlainText instruction.
I then switch to another applications with styled text, select the text
copy it to the clipboard, return for LC with the insertion point in the
field and press Control-V.
RESULT: the breakpoint is never triggered and styled text is pasted into
the field.
If I just have a pasteKey handler with a beep (or anything else) as the
sole instruction, the same result, the breakpoint is never triggered.
The pasteKey message appears broken under both Windows and OSX (tested
under 10.9.5) in LC9.0.0? Can anyone confirm this bug?

Check out this handler. I can answer questions about it this evening
if needed.

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?
