I'm trying to clear an edit text field when the user clicks on it. BFM_ACTION_ID doesn't report any actions in the text field until the user has started typing.
I tried getting a combination of when the left mouse button was clicked + if the result cursor changed to an IBEAM, but that did not seem to work, either. Maybe I'm incorrectly detecting the change to IBEAM?
Here's the code I'm trying there:
BaseContainer state;
GetInputState(BFM_INPUT_MOUSE, BFM_INPUT_MOUSELEFT, state);
if(state.GetLong(BFM_INPUT_VALUE) == TRUE && state.GetLong(RESULT_CURSOR) == MOUSE_IBEAM)
{
//Clear the text field
}
I also tried continuously polling the mouse, but that did not work, either. I'm pretty sure I'm not detecting the mouse change correctly.
