Start by downloading a little stack I have made.

KeyZ.png (4.37 KiB) Viewed 3936 times

It contains this code in the cardScript:

on keyDown KD
put KD into fld "KD"
end keyDown

on rawKeyUp KU
put KU into fld "RD"
end rawKeyUp

So, when you press a key and then let it go you will get the keyCode in the top window
and the rawKeyCode in the bottom window.

Now, once you have used that stack to determine the rawKeyCode for backSpace you can assign that code to any key on your keyboard you want:

on keyDown KD
if KD = "q" then
put numToCodePoint(65288)
end if
end keyDown

Hi Klaus,

in another thread someone ask if samjith and shall is the same person. The reply was that they are collaborators. Apparently they ask similar questions in a very similar style.
Maybe they should talk to each other a little more. And get to the basics of Livecode a little more. There is the language guide, there are the lessons http://lessons.runrev.com

I am missing your link to the "conferences"...

Kind regards
Bernd

Hi Bernd,

I already pointed both of them to the URL!

Hi all,

Samjith is a different person. I and Samjith have the same project. Samjith already asked the question for which he didn't get an exact output.
That's why I asked the same question.

Thanks
