Keyboard events and MVRectangleTool

Hi,
I would like to know if it's possible to check ctrl-key pressed status while the user is drawing a rectangle on the map with MVRectangleTool. I use Mapviewer Ver11_1_1_B090416.
Thanks,
Niccolo'

does it work the same if you use the following?  if yes, there's something other than the code you're showing that's causing the problem.
Scene 1 code:
stop();
stage.addEventListener(KeyboardEvent.KEY_DOWN, doKeyDown);
function doKeyDown(e:KeyboardEvent):void {
switch (e.keyCode) {
  case Keyboard.LEFT :
   b1_mc.x-=5;
   break;
  case Keyboard.RIGHT :
   b1_mc.x+=5;
   if (b1_mc.x>350) {
goNextScene(null);
   break;
next_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, goNextScene);
function goNextScene(e:MouseEvent):void {
stage.removeEventListener(KeyboardEvent.KEY_DOWN,doKeyDown);
gotoAndPlay(1,"Scene 2");
Scene 2 code:
stop();
stage.addEventListener(KeyboardEvent.KEY_DOWN, doKeyDown2);
function doKeyDown2(e:KeyboardEvent):void {
switch (e.keyCode) {
  case Keyboard.LEFT :
   b2_mc.x -= 5;
   break;
  case Keyboard.RIGHT :
   b2_mc.x += 5;
   break;

  • Keyboard events and scenes problem

    I have 2 scenes. In both scenes, I have a movie clip that moves via keyboard control.  If the goto next scene is triggered by the movie clip in the first scene the keyboard control works in the second.  However, if I use a button to move to the next scene then there isn't any control over the movieclip in that scene.  I've traced the keyCode in the second scene and it is picked up but the switch statement doesn't run. I'm migrating to Actionscript 3.0 and updating something I created in 2.0.  I would like to do it without writing a class.

  • Can we catch keyboard event triggered by an inputfiled?

    Hi all,
    I have a question here:
    When we are doing the web dynpro abap development, if I want to catch the keyboard triggered by an
    input help and handle it, how can I achieve this?
    e.g.   I have an inputfield on the UI,  if user click "F10" on the keyboard, can I catch this kind of event?
    Thanks and Regards,
    Aaron

    Hi Thomas,
    Yes, I'm trying to acomplish an input help for an inputfield.But, the free programmed value or OVS or dictionary search help can fullfill my needs.Here is the situation:
    I have a inputfield on the UI, and next to that , I have another textview, which should be changed according inputfield. e.g.  the inputfield is a user name, and next to that , is the user id. but we only want the input help for user name. so when user select one row iof the search result table, I want that two fields both filled.
    1. the OVS can't meet my need because I can't change the layout of the search result table, I need a table with a tree in it.
    2. free programmed value help can only send back the value of the inputfield. although maybe I can get the user_id's context attribute name and by hardcoding and send back also the user id. but I don't like hardcoding.
    So, I'm wondering whether I could catch the keyboard event. and handle the F4 help all by myself.
    Do you have some suggestion on this?
    Thanks and Regards,
    Aaron

  • Listen Keyboard events in AIR for iOS? [HELP]

    It works in the browser...  Is there any way in AIR to do this for iOS ?

    Hi, this is an old post but it is related to issues that still in Adobe AIR 3.7, I have the same situation implementing an iCade controller, I have solved the problem creating an iCade proxy that use a hidden TextField to capture text change events that are mapped into keyboard events and finally dispatched to the game listener.

  • How to receive a keyboard event (arrowkeys)

    Hi,
    I'm a bit confused about how to setup event-handling for keyboard event. I have created a window with a File's Owner called "MyDocument". But if I implement the method
    <pre>
    -(void)sendEvent: (NSEvent *)theEvent {
    printf("Called\n");
    </pre>
    it wont be called. Does anyone know what else I have to do in order to receive keyboard events when a user presses an arrowkey inside my application ?
    Macbook Pro 15''   Mac OS X (10.4.8)   2GHz, 2GB

    You most likely need to implement -(void)keyDown:(NSEvent *)event to catch keyboard events and then query event for the key pressed. This method is defined in NSResponder together with mouseDown:, mouseDragged, keyUp:, etc.
    Here's a couple of examples from two sample apps:
    'Dicey' (online sample code):
    <pre>
    -(void)keyDown:(NSEvent *)event {
    // If the space bar was pressed, toggle hold on the first responder
    if ([[event characters] isEqualToString:@" "]) {
    [[dice objectAtIndex:firstResponderIndex] toggleHold];
    [self setNeedsDisplay:YES];
    } else {
    // We do care about our superclass dealing with tab shift-tab for first responder changes
    [super keyDown: event];
    </pre>
    'Worm' (From: /Developer/Examples/AppKit/Worm):
    <pre>
    - (void)keyDown:(NSEvent *)event {
    NSString *keys = [event charactersIgnoringModifiers];
    wormHeading = kGameHeadingStraight;
    if (keys && [keys length] > 0) {
    unichar c = [keys characterAtIndex:0];
    if (c == NSLeftArrowFunctionKey) {
    wormHeading = kGameHeadingLeft;
    } else if (c == NSRightArrowFunctionKey) {
    wormHeading = kGameHeadingRight;
    </pre>
    Note the use of NSLeftArrowFunctionKey for example in Worm. These and many other 'special' key constants are defined in NSEvent.

  • Send a keyboard event from labview to C#

    Hi,
    We currently have a program in c# that takes keyboard inputs from a user and will fly a quadrotor. We aim to have a LabView .vi generate keyboard commands based on our experiment and send the commands to the c# code creating a feedback loop where the .vi will keep track of sensor and experimental data.
    Our problem is that we have tried many different methods to send the keyboard commands in LabView. 
    1) http://zone.ni.com/devzone/cda/epd/p/id/3711
    2) http://forums.ni.com/t5/LabVIEW/Send-keyboard-commands-to-another-windows-program/td-p/330670/page/2
    as well as other variations and similar .vi's that do the same thing. Here is an example of a .vi used to press the letter "t" once.
    http://i.imgur.com/hwmjZ.png
    All of them can write the string to a text (open notepad put cursor in blank window) file but none can do it in such a way that it is detected by the c# code. On my own I can open and run the c# code and press keyboard buttons myself and the commands are recognized, so I think it could be an issue with how LabView sends the keyboard events and how c# reads them. Here is the c# code segment that we are using to read the input commands:
    public override List<String> GetPressedButtons()
              KeyboardState state = device.GetCurrentKeyboardState();
              List<String> buttonsPressed = new List<String>();
              foreach (Key key in Enum.GetValues(typeof(Key)))
                        if (state[key])
                                  if (!buttonsPressed.Contains(key.ToString()))
                                            buttonsPressed.Add(key.ToString());
              return buttonsPressed;
    Can anyone help trying to figure out why using the keybd_event function in LabView can not interface correctly with the above detection code in c#? I can provide any code and clarification if you think it can be helpful.
    Thanks,
    Andy

    Hi,
    I can't say with certainty where the problem is or even how many there are. I do know that the KeyboardListener.cs class should work according to what I have read online. I also know that if I press the keyboard myself then the state is changed and the correct action is taken. If I try to issue an event from Labview then the event is not captured. Here is the code, it is rather large ~20 MB.
    https://www.dropbox.com/s/vsvcje1ro364otu/ARDrone.zip
    https://www.dropbox.com/s/p3h3tj8bcqc29gk/Forward_backward0924.vi
    The key listener is in ARDroneInput>Utils>KeyboardListener.cs and the polling takes place in ARDroneInput>KeyboardInput.cs
    The reason I wanted to use keyboard inputs is because the quadrotor we are using takes keyboard commands W,A,S,D,T and L. Initially I thought having Labview issue these commands would be the simplest method. That may not be the case.
    I was just thinking that it is not necessary that key events are sent from Labview. Instead, one could send an array representing the frequency of each button press rather than the button press directly. In that case an array that is updated continuously from Labview will just have to be kept track of in the C# code. The C# can then convert that to whatever control input we want. Can it be easier to send a vector of numbers in real time to C#?
    If you think it is better to establish a connection between Labview and C# using .NET to send keyboard commands (rather than the vector idea above) can you explain that a little more? How does one go about doing that? If you think the vector idea is simpler how should the interface be set-up?
    I just talked with my collegue and we think that maintaing a .txt file in Labview and having C# read it is the best option. We will begin working on that and will update you tomorrow.
    Thanks,
    Andy 

  • In Flashplayer, I can crossover mouse and keyboard events. In IrfanView I cannot. Can this be fixed?

    My client uses IrfanView to play SWF files. Unfortunately, he does not use Flashplayer. In Flashplayer, I can crossover mouse and keyboard events with no problem. In IrfanView, the second I click a button, the keyboard events are disabled. Is there a fix?

    Hi Ned. I may have posted this issue a bit early, but this problem is also happening in Flashplayer 10. It's not exclusive to IrfanView.
    Here is something that I encountered during my testing, when I jump to scene 6 using the menu button, I have a play button to jump from one frame to the next frame that stops -- the keyboard events start working. But if all I am doing is jumping scene to scene with the mouse button, the keyboard events are disabled.
    I feel as if the keyboard events only work if I am playing frames in the scene. And if all I am doing is jumping scene to scene using the buttons, the keys will disable.
    I set up the mouse buttons inside a movieclip that all the scenes share. The mouse actionscript is in the movieclip. On the main timeline of each scene is an actionscript for the keyboard events, even though I had to change each function name.
    I feel the actionscript is setup pretty simple. I just wish clicking the buttons would not disable the keyboard events. This may sound redundant, but the keyboard events do the same thing if you use the mouse buttons. It's just preference for the client even though he will need to understand that using the mouse buttons override the keyboard events. He doesn't really lose functionality.
    Keyboard actionscripting below:
    import flash.events.KeyboardEvent;
    stage.addEventListener(KeyboardEvent.KEY_DOWN, onKeyEvent);
    function onKeyEvent(e:KeyboardEvent):void {
    var character:String=String.fromCharCode(e.charCode);
    if (e.keyCode==72) {
      gotoAndStop(1,"master");
    if (e.charCode==49) {
      gotoAndPlay(1,"Distributor");
    if (e.charCode==50) {
      gotoAndPlay(1,"Mirka");
    if (e.charCode==51) {
      gotoAndPlay(1,"Farm");
    if (e.charCode==52) {
      gotoAndPlay(1,"Check2");
    if (e.charCode==53) {
      gotoAndPlay(1,"Check3");
    if (e.charCode==54) {
      gotoAndPlay(1,"Scene2");
    if (e.charCode==55) {
      gotoAndPlay(1,"Scene1");

  • Capture All Mouse and Keyboard events even if java window NOT in FOCUS

    Hi All,
    Is this possible to capture all mouse and keyboard events even if java window is not in focus or is minimized. This java program should cature each and every event from the user once the program is started. Any help in this regard is appreciated!
    Thanks&Regards

    I don't think you can. (without JNI)

  • Lock all mouse and keyboard event.

    i am looking ways to lock up all the mouse and keyboard events in windows...do u guy have ways to solve this?

    Do you mean that people should not be able to start other applications, or switch to other running applications, before they have typed the right password into you java program? I don't think that can be done in java - it requires more control over the computer than Java typically gives you. You may have some success with full-screen AWT, though.
    But why not use log-on-systems incorporated in whatever operating system you are using? Or some other netware thingie? Honestly, I think you are trying to reinvent the wheel, and even with tool that's not very appropriate.

  • AutoSuggest Widget and Custom Keyboard Events

    Hi,
    I'm using the 1.6 and AutoSuggest widget for a search form.
    I've managed to customise it slightly that when a user selects one
    of the suggestions with the mouse a hidden form field is populated
    with an ID (so that we don't actually have to search for the
    selected terms, we can just reference the hidden field value, if
    it's defined).
    I've used a very simple onclick= on the suggstion div (the
    autosuggest itself is almost identical to the examples) that sets
    the value of the hidden field to the ID when it's clicked. And
    works fine. Although I can't seem to get it to work with keyboard
    events. I've tried onkeydown=/onkeypress=/etc but not joy. The
    Autosuggest widget keyboard navigation works, (up, down and enter
    to select the suggestion) but does it overide any other attempts
    for keyboard events? Or am I doing something wrong?
    All the code is the same as the example apart from the actual
    suggestion div. Here it is:
    <div class="list" style="font-size:10px;"
    onkeydown="setHiddenValue('{hiddenid}')"
    onclick="setHiddenValue('{hiddenid}')">{name}</div>
    And the setHiddenValue function (which works fine onclick):
    function setHiddenValue(hidID) {
    document.getElementById("intHiddenID").value = hidID;
    Thanks in advance for any help
    Al

    Just an update - and not the best solution. I've gone in and
    edited the spryAutoSuggest.js to fit our needs exactly. It was a
    just case of editing the key press events for the enter key (13 -
    it's commented //enter key), which now gets the hidden field by ID
    and set the value required to it.
    Surprised there was no other suggestions... maybe something
    to be resolved in 1.7?

  • Keyboard events going to InDesign and not on textbox

    Hi,
    I have ported a project from InDesign CS2 to InDesgn CS3 on Mac. I have dialogs in rsrc file (not converted to nib file) which I am also using on XCode.

  • CS2: Listbox and keyboard events

    Hello all,
    I have a listbox widget in a Palette, I need to catch keyboard events specifically I need to be notified when the user presses the RETURN key.
    I checked the PanelTreeView sample which defines a custom event handler but functions like KeyDown or KeyCmd are never called despite "CanHaveKeyFocus" has been modified to return kTrue.
    How can I be notified when user presses the RETURN key in the PanelTreeView listbox?
    Thanks in advance ...

    If the StageWebView has focus, you should be able to capture only the hardware key events (like BACK, ..). All the others are handled internally by StageWebView.
    Do you see otherwise? If yes, can you post your application ?
    Thanks,
    Raul

  • Help a newbie with Keyboard events

    Right so I'm just getting started with ActionScript (and Flash) and I'm getting a bit confused. I've got quite a bit of experience programming in other languages but I've never touched either actionscript or flash before.
    I've got various books and have tried searching around the internet but I can't find anything to help me with this problem... it looks to me like it SHOULD work (but obviously I'm wrong because it doesn't!) I'm just trying to get the base for a game set up, and want to be able to take in user input via the keyboard (I will want mouse control as well, but let's focus on this problem first).
    My code is:
    package {
        import flash.display.MovieClip;
        import flash.events.*;
        import flash.ui.Keyboard;
        public class Main extends MovieClip
            var isRunning:Boolean = true;
            public function Main()
                trace("Flash Project!");
                Initialize();
                //Game Loop
                while(isRunning)
                    Update();
                trace("Exiting...");
            public function Initialize():void
                trace("Initializing!");
                stage.addEventListener(KeyboardEvent.KEY_DOWN, OnKeyPressed);
            public function Update():void
                trace("Updating...");
            public function OnKeyPressed(evt:KeyboardEvent):void
                switch (evt.keyCode)
                    case Keyboard.ENTER:
                        trace("Enter!");
                        break;
                    case Keyboard.ESCAPE:
                        isRunning = false;
                        break;
                    case default:
                        trace("keyCode: ", event.keyCode);
                        break;
    The errors it is generating refer to the OnKeyPressed function, and say that I have tried to access the undefined properties Keyboard, escape and default. I thought I imported all the keyboard stuff at the top? Help would be much appreciated here, I'll be fine once I'm up and running but at the moment I'm feeling somewhat lost.

    Right, well at least part of my problem was that I had
    trace("keyCode: " event.keyCode);
    instead of
    trace("keyCode: " evt.keyCode);
    but it still doesn't like the word "default"? This is strange as it's coming up in blue so it's obviosly recognising it as a keyword...
    If I comment out the 'default' section of te switch case statement it get's stuck in an infinite loop, even if I press escape... which should set 'isRunning' false therefore exiting the loop...
    Help!

  • Keeping same Events and Projects on 2 external HD - Best Practice

    I would like to receive your suggestions on this working flow. (I am also interested to get some confirmation that I am doing the right way).
    I use FCPX since few weeks. Coming from iMovie and FCE.
    I import videos from external drive "C" on 2 different external drive "A" and "B" with settings to copy the files there.
    In this way I hope orignals remain on "C"
    I edit using "A" or "B" and the resulting Projects remain on the same drive.
    I copy Events and Projects between "A" and "C" to keep them uptodate after some work. I do all copy with FCPX with both drives connected.
    Will this workflow let me to keep Events on both drives according the latest editing ? (If I reopen each project on the same drive of its events A with A and B with B).
    Then I like to group projects under folders (move not copy) again working only inside FCPX.   This removes the project form the Project folder and let me to save a new version of the next editing workflow with the same project name. But if I try to save the same project again it will be renamed with extension (fcp1).
    This way will bring me to a serie of projects instead of replace the previous with a new version. I would prefer to limit this to a few versions: any way ?
    Last: I like to keep also a copy of projects on the main HD. Only Projects with its Render files without Events.
    Will it be possible to use this Projects moving them to one of the 2 HD "A" or "B" and go on ?
    Thanks for your time.

    Hello Zebber28.
    I do exactly as you propose doing in terms of having a 500GB Western Digital elements portable external HD which I simply connect up every three months or so on a top up basis.   I don't disconnect the primary external HD while I do this as I don't need to.   I simply plug into the port in the keyboard.
    Just make sure you properly eject the new HD each time you use it, otherwise it's all pretty basic.
