Hello,
I am trying to find a way to receive a mouseUp message in an unlocked field. I know this works when the lockText is set to true but I need the field to be unlocked as well.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Andrew

Hi Andrew,

You can use the selectionChanged message or you can respond to right-clicks/control-clicks.

Kind regards,

Mark

Hi Andrew,
Try;
on openField

Hi Simon,

That won't work if the user clicks in the field while it is has focus already while the openField message will also fire if the field gets focus in any way other than a mouse click.

Kind regards,

Mark
