[ANN] tRev Magic Menus: contextual, mouse-free menus

[Jerry Daniels]

Script and object editor oriented folk:

We have a marvelous video of Build 319 of tRev for you today:

     http://reveditor.com/magic-menus-look-ma-no-hands

It shows how the new tRev Magic Menus work.

Some details...

New Magic Menu:
- We needed a pop up menu for tRev lists and code that could be 100%  
keyboard initiated and controlled.
- Right-click anywhere in a stacks, cards, clips, controls or handlers  
list and a magic menu will show.
- The source code field also displays a magic menu with the right-click.
- Type cmd+shift+m to make the magic menu appear/disappear without a  
mouse/trackpad.
- Selection from the magic menu does what its name indicates.
- Magic menu remembers what you last did in any magic menu.
- Once open, magic menu can be operated with arrow keys to change  
selection and return to accept a choice.
- Once open magic menu can be run using Quick Keys
- Escape key will close magic menu without making a choice.

Colorize while typing enhancements:
- when you drag and drop text within the source code field, it now  
colorizes the dropped text.
- when you type a matched quote within an unmatched parenthesis, the  
colorization works properly.

General enhancements
- home, end, page up and page down keys now passed to Revolution for  
handling.
- the handler list selection will change to reflect the new selections  
in the code field when you do the following:
   + do a find from the find pane
   + type command+up/down arrow
   + type the home, end, page up, page down keys on extended keyboards
- when in Rev and property inspector is in front, type escape to  
dismiss it

Windows:
- Always start tRev first.
- Make certain the Rev IDE user extensions preference points to "My  
Revolution Enterprise" (use appropriate license type)

Best,
