Is this expected behaviour?

On arrow key down, that is 65364, as well as the box moving within the stack window I am periodically but regularly getting the LC green splash screen appear and also the application window stack gets grayed out (as if not selected) and the Script editor window becomes the focus, all this is happening while the object in the application stack window is moving at the same time that my finger is on the arrow key down.

Code: Select all

on moveBox
   if keysdown() = 65362 then
      set the top of the button "box" to the top of the button "box" - 1
   end if
   if keysdown() = 65364 then
      set the bottom of the button "box" to the bottom of the button "box" +1
   end if
   if keysDown() = 65361 then
      set the left of the button "box" to the left of the button "box" - 1
   end if
   if keysdown() = 65363 then
      set the right of the button "box" to the right of the button "box" +1
      end if

How do you invoke "moveBox"?

Turn off the navigationArrows global property (easily done in Preferences, with the "Arrow keys navigate through cards" option.

That behavior is "normal" only in that it reflects a certain legacy, but I recently initiated a discussion with the team to consider turning it off by default to avoid confusing people like you and me.

With the arrow keys
