Trigger on Select/Unselect

J Wilwert
J Wilwert over 16 years ago

Hi,

I am new to the concept of triggers and haven't been able to spend a lot of time doing any detailed research - so right to the point.

I want to execute a bit of skill code when an item is selected/deselected.  Can this be done with the use of a trigger?  Is there an other approach which might be better?  Any ideas anyone?

 Many THANKS in advance,

John Wilwert

    Hi John,

    In addition to what Ted has said, you might be able to modify the default bindkey command(s) to replace them with your own versions that do additional things.  For example you might replace the left-mouse-click bindkey ("None<Btn1Down>" in bindkey coding) to call your function which is a wrapper, or to call an additional command (space separated in the t_SKILL_cmd string argument to the hiSetBindKey() function).  Although not quite what you are looking for, take a look at: SourceLink Solution 11244518

    Best regards,

    Lawrence.
