New subject: Tcl-tk plugin to avoid paste going to edit mode

19 Feb 2018

      Option 1 is easier:
# this is the default in pd_bindings.tcl
bind all <$::modifier-Key-v>      {menu_send %W paste}
# disabled
bind all <$::modifier-Key-v>      {break}
Option 2 requires either overriding ::pd_menucommands::menu_send and intercepting the paste message or changing the paste handling in the core, I think.
Option 3: Maybe flatgui/entry shouldn't always go into edit mode (a bug) or at least have some way to control it's behavior (a feature)?

Hello list,
I had a question for any tcl-plugin programmer out there: is it possible
(and easy) to make a GUI plugin that would avoid Pd going into edit mode
when the paste key combination is pressed? The reason is, while using a
patch with [flatgui/entry], the patch is always going into edit mode.
I would imagine it could work in one of these ways, but I can't judge which
is the easiest:

remove the key binding that makes ctrl+v go into edit mode

or

keep the key binding, but after opening edit mode, it closes it again

I tried IO's kiosk plugin, but it didn't help with this particular case.
