Active String

[LTT]

Setting:
String in “”: R-Clicked = Run Macro.

Sample line:
This is an “Active String”.

Issue 1:
Let the sample text be the 1st line.
R-click in the ruler just above “Active String”.
** This triggers the R-Clicked event. The macro runs.

Issue 2:
Put the cursor within “Active String”.
Press Application key. It also runs the macro.
Is it possible to make Application key differ from R-clicking?

Hello,
I would like to clarify your question.
What is the Application key? Is it the Alt key?
How did you assign your key?
Also, how did you assign Active String (“stings enclosed by double-quotation marks” – “Right Clicked”)?
Is “Active String” a path to a macro file? For instance, is it actually something like “C:\test\test.jsee”?
Thank you,

I’m just taking an example. The macro is not necessary. You can set another Action to reproduce the issues.

>What is the Application key?
Maybe you call it “Menu key”:

It’s recognized as “Application” in EmEditor (shortcut settings).

>How did you assign your key?
We were talking about this key and I haven’t assigned it to anything since you said you would disable the ability:

Thanks for clarification. This issue will be fixed on the next beta.
