Cut and Paste in standalone apps

Bugs or Feedback
1

The App created fine using 9.15 on Mac 26, but when running, I could not cut and paste text using the keyboard or context menu, because the app default menu bar does not have an Edit menu.

Do I need to add that myself using the Inclusions when building the app?

Thanks for the help.

Hi Kelly, you need to build a menu using the Tools > Menu Builder option

--The following menuPick handler was generated by the Menu Builder.

on menuPick pWhich

switch pWhich

case "Cut"

--Insert script for Cut menu item here

break

case "Copy"

--Insert script for Copy menu item here

break

case "Paste"

--Insert script for Paste menu item here

break

case "Preferences"

case "Clear"

--Insert script for Clear menu item here

break

end switch

end menuPick

OK. How do I call the system wide Cut Copy Paste functions?

Thanks again…

cut

copy

paste

Yes, those are the literal commands to use.

Looks like when we updated to ARM, the code for the menus wasn’t updated to hide the menu group, but it will be fixed in 0.9.16
