I have a palette of html mark up tools that operate on the top window. I am unable to get the insertion point for an empty cursor from the selectedChunk function (it used to work!). A test button in the palette with its traversalOn set to false (so as not to deselect text in the top Stack).

Simply:

on mouseUp
  put the selectedChunk
end mouseUp

If text is selected in the top window we do get the expected response,
e.g. char 4633 to 4654 of field 1 so my button, the field, and the selectedChunk function are apparently OK.


But, if we simply insert the cursor somewhere and press the same button we get empty, zippo.

But, the function, as documented, should return a string like this for just an insertion point:

char 51 to char 50 of field 1

===docs:
Comments:
The return value reports the selected text: the startChar is the first character of the selection, and the endChar is the last character.


If no text is selected but the text insertion point is in a field, the startChar is the character after the insertion point, and the endChar is the character before the insertion point. In this case, the endChar is one less than the startChar.

Why is this not working? OS X... Rev 2.2 Can anyone confirm this is failing also on their Mac?

OS X 10.3.3

This is a nuisance, (obviously) as I have to now prompt the user to select an empty space for insertion of stand alone elements like

<hr class="mainHeadLineRule" />
<br />

when what is wanted is to simply place the cursor then click those respective buttons on the palette.

??
TIA
