Contextual menu trouble

[William de Smet]

Hi there,

@John: with the Locktext set to true?
This way I cannot paste into the field.

I feel real stupid because it doesn't work.
Anyone?

In a field:
on mouseDown theMouseButton
  if theMouseButton is 3 then
     popup button "popup"
 else
   pass mouseDown
 end if
end mouseDown

on mouseUp theMouseButton
  if theMouseButton is 3 then
    popup button "popup"
 else
   pass mouseUp
 end if
end mouseUp

Button "popup":
on menuPick pItemName
  switch pItemName
 case "Cut"
   cut
   break
 case "Copy"
   copy
   break
 case "Paste"
   paste
   break
 end switch
end menuPick



greetings,
William
