What is it for? I tried to use it to copy text from a textarea to the clipboard and i then tried to paste it into notepad while my program was still running.
Do I need to use other methods for interaction with the clipboard? If so, which?
Thanks (in advance)
Erm.... without looking at the docs and never having used MaxGUI, I'd hazard a guess that it copies a gadget? o.O
What on earth made you think it was something to do with the clipboard?
AFAIK there aren't any native commands to deal with clipboards.
There are GadgetCut(), GadgetCopy(), and GadgetPaste() commands and when you right-click on a textarea it automatically pulls up a popup window with cut, copy, and paste commands. What I thought makes logical sense if you really think about it.
Found putting gadgetcopy into the forum search engine.
One two Wow, there is one simple little step I forgot and that was what was causing the problem.
I changed:
GadgetCopy(letterbox)
to
SelectTextAreaText(letterbox)
GadgetCopy(letterbox)
...and now it works
