Hi Eric, thanks for your help, it works perfectly :) Well, this is what I ended up using (in the stack script) Can you see if there is any problem writing it like this? I'm still VERY new to scripting :D:
on commandKeyDown pKey if pKey = "v" then if the clipboard is "text" then put the clipboardData[text] into field "Edit" end if else pass commandKeyDown end commandKeyDown Yes, and er now to work out how to handle the replacing etc. Ack. So many things to think about isn't there hehe... :D Heather ----- Original Message ----- From: "Eric Chatonet" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "How to use Revolution" <use-revolution@lists.runrev.com> Sent: Friday, August 01, 2008 6:47 PM Subject: Re: My Notepad Style Project Bonjour Heather, Welcome to the list :-) First you have to check the clipboard contents to accept text only: if the clipboard is "text" then... Then use the clipboardData["text"] that is unformatted text: put the clipboardData["text"] into fld < Edit field> To handle the paste shortcut: on commandKeyDown pKey if pKey = "v" then... else pass commandKeyDown end commandKeyDown You can use the pasteKey message also but it will work in a standalone only. Last but not least, you'll have to struggle with the selectedChunk to paste at the right place or replace some selected text. Good luck :-) Le 1 août 08 à 10:27, H Baric a écrit : > Hi all, this is my first post.
