I have played around with table fields, but wonder where any information
about them exists. The user manual barely mentions them. I see it is a single,
(sort of) list field with management to permit text entry into "cells".
I cannot for the life of me trap any of the keyup/down or rawKeyup/down
messages. These work as advertised in ordinary fields.
Since it acts sort of like a 2D list field, if I write a mouseUp handler to
get info on the selectedChunk, say, I get an expression referring to a
field number greater than the number of fields on the card. In other words, the
number of the table field is 5, and I get a chunk expression like "char 1 to
4 of field 6". Where is this phantom field?
Rev puts up a cell-sized field over the clicked "cell" so that you can
edit the contents. When you are done editing, Rev puts the new content
back into the relevant item chunk in the field and removes its own
field. The field is temporary. The reason you can't retrieve any
click/selected/text chunking info is because Rev is trapping all that in
order to process the text and pop it into its editing field.
If you don't use the cRevTable cells option in the inspector, none of
that will happen and you can manage the field text and trap selections
normally.
