Arrow key in the keydown event

Hello,
I used the keydown event to display the characters on the Screen depending on the key which is pressed,
but if I press arrow keys and want to display "x" on the extreme right side of the characters for example :
abcsdex
here x is displayed when left arrow key is pressed. I tried it but x is not displayed where I want it is displayed on the extreme left of the characters or in between the characters.
Thank you.

Thank you.write a KeyPressed event.get a ASCII value of the key you want to press.Then append the ASCII value of that pressed key to the current string in your desired position.First store the current string to a String variable.

  • Can't press more than 2 directional arrows keys at the same time

    I just noticed that in the Macbook Pro Retina that I bought recently there's no way to press more than 2 arrow keys at the same time, or at least the system does not seem to handle it.
    All other keys can be pressed at the same time without any problems, so I think that the problem affects only the arrow keys.
    I'm surprised that in a modern computer can exist this type of limitation
    I think Apple should update the system to allow this - car gamers like me will thanks or feel less disappointed...
    Any help would be appreciated!
    Thanks

    Uninstalled everything PA, also uninstalled mangler which was the only thing that depended on PA. It didn't work anyway.
    No pulseaudio --kill command so I couldn't run.
    Checked systemd journal and there is no mention of PA this time.
    Checked top, and grepped ps aux and there is no PA there either.
    I also rebooted the machine completely just to make sure. However VLC and HTML5 have the same incompatibilities.

    Nope, I doubt it.  As I said:
    I disabled Aero theme, checked font scaling was 100% and rebooted Windows in between all of the steps to no avail.
    I've been reading a lot around this and it seems the arrow key problem is a red herring; I think it's just some kind of terminal preferences corruption.

  • Three or four arrow keys at the same time required.

    I sometimes play a browser game that is much like the dancing game, and it sometimes requires me to press 3 or 4 arrow keys at the same time. It does not seem to detect when a third or fourth arrow key is being pressed, in any application. Is there anything I can do about that?

    Is the problem the way the keyboard was built, or is there some kind of setting I can change, or is there some kind of program I can download from somewhere that would fix my problem?

  • Why does my Right arrow key type the number "8" and the Up arrow key type the number "9"

    Whenever I hit the right or up arrow key on my macbook, it does shift either right or up but it also type either the number "8" for the right arrow key or the number "9" for the up key. How do I get this to stop? It's very annoying

    Hi benmurray37,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
    For this situation I would suggest a few different steps to isolate and resolve the issue. Please follow the steps listed in the Some keys don’t work as expected section of the following article.

  • In latest Nightly, arrow keys don't move the cursor but instead exit the text box. How can I fix this so that the arrow keys move the cursor?

    Using Nightly 28.0a1, I'm having a problem with the text box fields when typing. I use Hacker's Keyboard which has onscreen arrow keys and I find it more convenient than fiddling with a tiny cursor thumb when editing text. On the Play Store Firefox it works just fine but on Nightly, any time I try to move the cursor with the arrow keys it jumps out of the text box and highlights other elements on the page. This is annoying beyond belief as it means having to resort to that imprecise thumb cursor that takes forever to get where you want it. Is this a known issue with the latest nightly builds?

    Thanks for the report. I have filed bug https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=939959. It would be helpful to know and if you can comment into the bug to indicate which input field you are testing on.

  • JComboBox fires ActionEvent when using Arrow Keys on the JComboBox popupwindow

    Hi,
    Situation:
    I have a JComboBox and an ActionListener (ItemStateListener is
    the same) attached to the JComboBox component.
    I have several items in the ComboBox.
    At runtime I open the ComboBox with arrow Key (DOWN Key)
    (popupwindow is visible) and go through the items with the arrow
    keys (UP or DOWN).
    Every time I change from one item to another with the arrow
    keys , the ActionListener is called, although the popupwindow is
    still open (ENTER was not pressed). I think this is very bad,
    because I do not have chance to divide between "the user is
    travelling around in the combo looking for the right item"
    and "the user selects the item he wants".
    When you walk through the items with the mouse, the
    ActionListener is not called.
    Question:
    Is there any chance to prevent the ComboBox fireing
    ActionEvents, when the users walks through the items with Arrow
    Keys?
    I've looked at the L&F Classes, but in my opinion it is not the
    right way to overwrite the ComboUI classes.
    Any ideas?
    Loeri

    Try using the PopupMenuListener.
         m_objListNameComboBox.addPopupMenuListener(/* your listener */);
    Do what you want in the method popupMenuWillBecomeInvisible.
    I use it to get the LAST selected item in the combobox.
         // Implementation of PopupMenuListener
         public void popupMenuWillBecomeVisible(PopupMenuEvent e)
              m_intSelectedIndex = m_objListNameComboBox.getSelectedIndex();
         // Implementation of PopupMenuListener
         public void popupMenuWillBecomeInvisible(PopupMenuEvent e)
              if (m_intSelectedIndex != m_objListNameComboBox.getSelectedIndex())
                   // do what you want!

  • Glitch with the Arrow Keys on the Keyboard

    Hello all,
    I apologize if this has been addressed somewhere before, I assure you I've checked the FAQ's but to no avail. Out of the blue my arrow, or "nudge" keys on the keyboard for moving objects incrementally stopped working. I have to select objects and move them with the mouse or with the "Move" menu etc. The crazy thing is that the keys work in other areas of the program, like scrolling through font's and such, as well as all other apps, Photoshop, Flash, etc. I'm just stabbing here to make sure I didn't unintentially disable those keys in the program somewhere. It's not a huge deal, aggravating, and very, very, strange. BTW, I have done the uninstall, reinstall but no change. Any input will be appreciated...

    Something else to consider is the increment setting you have entered in your preferences.
    If it's exceedingly small (say 0.001 pt) you may not see the movement from a number of keypress arrow nudges unless you're zoomed in tight.
    Resetting your Illustrator prefs will merely set it back to the default, which is something you
    i can
    see at normal viewing magnification.

  • Catch the keydown event in matrix

    Dear all,
    In matrix I have 2 cols (Code, FullName). In Col with name 'Code' have formated search to search Employee Code. Now i want to catch the tab key when user leave the col 'Code' I will call a function to get Fullname to assign to col 'FullName'. I tried use formated search for this case but inactive so I must use this solution.
    Please help me for this problem.
    Thanks

    Hi,
    You can trap the Validate event on your form and then filter to check if the item UID is your matrix and the column is your code column. If the ItemChanged property is true then run your code to retrieve the name and populate the other column for the current row.
    Kind Regards,

  • Using arrow key to move down Event list bug

    1. I have my event window in List mode.
    2. I'm moving down the list with the DOWN ARROW button.
    3. I have a clip selected and the clip name turns blue.
    4. I take the cursor and skim the clip preview at the top. FCP X makes the name of the clip gray instead of blue.
    5. I press the DOWN ARROW button again.
    6. FCP X selects an arbitrary clip and not the next clip in the list.
    So just open up an event with a lot of clips in LIST VIEW and sort anyway you want, select a clip, skim the clip preview at the top, the clip name in the list becomes gray, then press DOWN ARROW multiple times and see it jump between what seems like arbitrary clips.
    I can't figure out the logic of how it's selecting the clips as I press DOWN ARROW.
    So what I have to do is skim the preview, then mouse down to the grayed out name and click on it with the mouse, then press DOWN ARROW, etc.
    So, basically, the UP/DOWN ARROW buttons are useless in LIST VIEW because I might as well just click on the next clip with the mouse.
    Thanks for your time.

    Tom Wolsky wrote:
    Yes, the clip goes gray. The down arrow takes me to the next clip in the list.
    Thanks, Tom.
    OK, so what I'm seeing is it sometimes works fine, other times it acts as I've described.
    I noticed that when I change the sort from DURATION to NAME, etc., it seems to trigger the behavior I'm describing. See if changing events and then selecting, skimming, then changing the sort by clicking on the column triggers it for you.
    This behavior happens with the event window in the main window or on my second monitor.
    Thank you for your time, Tom.

  • Ctrl-v key combo not working in keydown event in Adobe Air

    I am needing to capture the ctrl-c/ctrl-x/ctrl-v keys in the keydown Javascript event from within Adobe Air.
    I have managed to get the events to fire correctly.
    When I press ctrl, c, x, v, ctrl-c and ctrl-x, I get the correct corresponding keycodes. However, when I press ctrl-v, no event gets triggered.
    Is Air preventing the key presses from reaching this event in the case of ctrl-v?
    Here is the code I am using:
        document.getElementById('main_grid').addEventListener('keydown', keyDownEvent, false);
        keyDownEvent = function(e) {
            alert(e.keyCode);

    I'm surprised you get ctrl-c and ctrl-x. Do they work when you have selected text? What is probably happening is the default handler for the paste event is "swallowing" the keystroke. You could try listening for the paste event and calling the event object's preventDefault() method. (I haven't tried it, though, so I'm not positive that would allow the keystroke to be passed along.) If you are trying to create your own copy/paste functions, you might be better off listening for the copy and paste events themselves, rather than the raw keystrokes.
    Another alternative is to listen for the keystrokes on window.htmlLoader, which should get the keystrokes before they are passed to the HTML engine.
