Hello Revo User's
I have a glossary in my stack that has clickText as the find source. It
used to go from a found selection to another, finding each instance of
the word as the mouseup is clicked. All of a sudden it does not do it
anymore. Instead it only finds the first instance of the word and goes
no further BUT if I hold the control key on the mac it acts as
expected/ as it did before. This script is in the glossary field itself
so if you click a word in the field it is supposed to find other
instances of that word each time you click on that word even if you
click a different instance of that word. This was working and I loved
it but now it's broke and I want it back.....
The script is quite simple:
on mouseUP
find the clickText in field "SearchField"
put value(the foundLine) into field "Glos"
--pass mouseUp
end mouseUP
I use a similar script in other text fields to look up words in this
glossary field and they work. But they are in a background grp and as
such need this script to do the lookup and come back to what card we
are on. HOWEVER when we are on the "14: Glossary..." card this script
finds each instance of the word click on from one to the next etc.
until done.:
on mouseUp
lock screen
put the number of this card into lmyCard
find the clickText in field "SearchField" of card "14: Glossary..."
if the result is "Not found" -- not the text of me in field
"SearchField"
then
beep
else
put value(the foundLine) into field "Glos" -- Glos is a
background grp
end if
go card lmyCard
unlock screen
end mouseUp
Any help from you guys is appreciated.
