mouseDoubleUp

Type

message

Summary

Sent when the mouse button is released at the end of a double-click.

Syntax

mouseDoubleUp <pButtonNumber>

Description

Handle the mouseDoubleUp message to perform an action when the user double-clicks.

The mouseDoubleUp message is sent to the control that was double-clicked, or to the card if no control was under the mouse pointer.

If a tool other than the Browse tool is being used, no mouseDoubleUp message is sent. If an unlocked field is clicked with mouse button 1 or 2, no mouseDoubleUp message is sent.

The doubleClickInterval and doubleClickDelta properties determine what LiveCode accepts as a double click.

note

If the user clicks a transparent pixel in an image, the mouseDoubleUp message is sent to the object behind the image, not to the image.
