Please suggest an easy way to deactivate a fields scripts

[Mark Schonewille]

Hi Willam,

Something like this?


local lSwitch

on rawkeyDown
   if the shiftKey is down and the optionkey is down and the  
environment contains "dev" then
     put (lSwitch is false) into lSwitch // switch on-off
     exit rawKeyDown
   else if lSwitch is false and the environemtn contains "dev" then
     -- run short version of your script here or do nothing
     pass rawKeyDown -- if you want
   else if lSwitch is not false or the environment contains  
"standalone" then
     -- run script as normal
     pass rawKeyDown
   end if
end rawKeyDown

on rawKeyUp
   if lSwitch is not false or the environment contains "standalone" then
     -- run script as normal
     pass rawKeyUp
   else
     -- run short version of your script here or do nothing
     pass rawKeyUp -- if you want
   end if
end rawKeyUp

--
Best regards,

Mark Schonewille
