Strange behaviour arrow keys

Post by bsouthuk » Wed Sep 14, 2011 11:33 am

Hi

I have recently experienced some strange behaviour with my stack. I use data grids and fields with text that you can scroll up and down using arrow keys on a keyboard.

Since yesterday though (and this is only when i have saved as a standalone exe) when I try to scroll up and down in my datagrids or scroll fields using my arrow keys, it takes me to previous cards instead! I really do not understand why this has all of a sudden started to happen.

I have tried to change some of the standalone settings and unchecked all the boxes but the problem still happens

Any ideads anyone?

I had the same problem. I guess this is normal for LiveCode. I put the code below in an openStack handler and it worked for me.

Code: Select all

set the navigationArrows to false
