Hi, I have like this application with 4 tab views and 3 of them have a drop box… but I want to do different actions with the different drop boxes. Is this possible somehow ? can I use the a handler more than once ?

Thanks

Hi,

of course you can use a handler more than once.
All handlers have a parameter like theObject to identify the sender

#3

But I mean:

On clicked theObject
end clicked
On clicked theObject
end clicked

and not :

On clicked theObject
if name of theObject = "test" then
--Do stuff
else if name of theObject = "this ain't a test" then
--Do other stuff
end if
end clicked

Or am I completely understanding you wrong ?

#4

I see, no, you can use only the second version. But what’s wrong with filtering the sender?

#5

Do you mean this ?

if name of theobject = "test" then
--123
else if name of theobject "test2" then
--123
end if

Is that possible with all handlers ? (with all I just mean, clicked, toolbar and drop :stuck_out_tongue: ) ?

Thanks for your relpies so far!

#6

yes, it’s possible with all handlers which have a theObject parameter

#7

Oh, thanks, I’ll try it… thought it wasn’t possible with the drop handler and some others…

Take a look at the Drag&Drop sample project in /Developer/Examples/AppleScript Studio/Drag and Drop/ to customize drag&drop
