I can't figure out why enterKey handler doesn't work.
I use "Text entry field" controlle to enter the text from application. In script of this object i've got this:
on enterKey
-- some actions
-- some actions
end enterKey
and this actions doesn't executing. I even add the command (put "Enter key is pressed") to see if this handle suddenly works? (enterKey)
but
Help me, please

3. Do not use ENTERKEY (check the dictionary for an expanation!)!
You need ENTERINFIELD (and/or RETURNINFIELD):
on enterInField
-- some actions
-- some actions
end enterInField
Best

Klaus, btw, one more question)))))
when i use "text field entry", i puting the pre-assigned value to this field (it's like default text).
I wanna highlight this text when stack is opening. It means that text will be deleted by entering any new characters (or pressing backspace, delete etc.)
And remains the same if i just hit Enter. it's the same when i select several characters with mouse.
So, how can i highlight the text?

Hello from me too, to hilite the text of a field you would use the folowing code:
or if you want to select just 1 line"
or if you want 1 word:
and goes on...
