[REBOL] Inline edit field
From: henrik:webz:dk at: 25-Feb-2004 21:01
Hi
I'm trying to put together a real inline edit field, such as the one
used in spreadsheets or in the Windows file requester when renaming a
file, and I can't find anything related directly to what I want to do.
Basically I'm using a button and change the feel to that of a field and
I want the Enter key, tab, escape or clicking outside the field to
revert the feel to button with new contents.
It seems that ctx-text/edit makes the field editable, but I can't figure
out how to make it behave as a single line edit field and how to get out
of the editing state again in a simple fasion.
Probing the feels of the button, field and textarea gadgets with:
layout [r: button] probe r/feel
layout [r: field] probe r/feel
layout [r: textarea] probe r/feel
reveals the code to do this, and I can't figure out how field captures
an enter or tab key to unfocus the field, where a textarea sets it to a
new line. The button behaves the same way. Any ideas?
I'm using the latest beta 1.2.40 to test this.
