I am trying to override the default translations of a mouse button
press in a text widget. The action specified by the new translation
is being activated, but the old translation action is ALSO being invoked
on the same button press. What am I doing wrong:
Demo*Text.Translations: #override \
<LeaveWindow>: UpdateText() NonEditable() \n\
<Btn1Down>: Editable()
(The three actions above (UpdateText, NonEditable, and Editable) are actions
I have written myself.)

Works just fine for me. In your particular example, you may want to add the following; as you only modified the Btn1Down translation, the remainder of the translations will continue to be triggered. <Btn1Motion>: ignore() \n\ <Btn1Up>: ignore() where ignore() is another application-defined action. (The Text documentation lists a 'do-nothing' action but it's missing from the implementation).
