Hello Samuel,

Thanks for your answer.
If you see the example code in my initial post, it illustrates that the
figure event handler does not fire (not for keyboard events either).
However, as I found out later, this is only the case when the script has
been started from Scipad.
See Francois' reply.

Best regards
Flemming
