I'm writing a flash application in Flex/AS3, and I can't seem to assign keyboard focus to it. I was mindful of this problem early on in development and added a splash screen with a "play now" button, to entice the user to click. However, the user must then click a second time on the application for the keyboard to work! To make matters ...
I'm having a problem with AS3 and keyboard focus, and I'm wondering if there is a variable or a function I can use that will output to screen the name of the object that currently has keyboard focus? ...
Hi, I want to get a carriage return/new line by hitting the return key on an UITextField's keyboard. I've found out, that textFieldShouldReturn gets called. But how do I insert a carriage return in the text field? ...
Hai How to get keyboard presskey values out of the application in vb.net 2005. I try form keydown event that is working in Application Active. ...
According to the official documentation, the KeyDown event on a Windows Forms control occurs only once, but it is easy to demonstrate that the event fires continually aslong as a key is held down: private void textBox1_KeyDown(object sender, KeyEventArgs e) { label1.Text = string.Format("{0}", globalCounter++); } H...
I am trying to prevent a user from entering anything into a particular textbox aside from a number or a period in C#. The textbox is supposed to contain an IP address. I have it working such that non-numeric entries are prevented, however I can't seem to get it to allow a period to be entered. How might I accomplish this? private vo...
I wanted to capture whether a modifier key was being pressed during application startup (to determine fullscreen or windowed). In the main window constructor I tried checking the Keyboard.Modifiers enum to see if Shift is down. It always showed 'None'. So I tried a different approach by starting off a DispatcherTimer and checking for ...
I have a keyboard event listener, and I am listening for the number pad key codes (1 through 9) for when number lock is activated; this works fine. However, in my app I also want to allow usage of a modifier key (CTRL) along with the number pad keys. The strange thing is that when holding CTRL, pressing 1 or 3 does not generate any key...
normally when you touch the text input area, the keyboard pops up and when you touch the empty area of screen, the keyboard disappeared. How to make that happen? just like what we experienced on iphone safari... Thank you ...
i would be interested in switching to Dvorak keyboard layout. The problem that everyone runs into is that common programming(1) keyboard shortcuts, such as: Ctrl+C Ctrl+V Ctrl+Z will no longer be the keys on the bottom left of the keyboard, since the Dvorak layout has C, V and Z in different locations. The Mac has solved this proble...
Can anyone tell me how to programmatically navigate through all UI element tab stops in a WPF application? I want to start with the first tab stop sniff the corresponding element, visit the next tab stop, sniff the corresponding element, and so on until I reach the last tab stop. Thanks, - Mike ...
I've built a WPF application. All of the UI elements except the Window are created in response to data binding. Thus, I set the DataContext of the Window, and voila -- a very large hierarchy of UI elements materializes on the screen. The UI contains lists of panels with lists, labels, more panels, textboxes, checkboxes, you name it. ...
Thanks to an answer on a previous question (Previous Question), I now have a body of code that navigates WPF tab stops (shown below). It works fine except for the first tab stop. Calling this.MoveFocus(...First) and followed by FocusManager.GetFocusedElement returns null. Any ideas? How do I get the first tab stop in my window? Than...
seriously: [] AltGr + 8/9 () Shift 8/9 {} AltGr + 7/0 <> < and Shift + < (this one's okay) diamond(?) three right from l (can't use the symbol here: makes the Text bigger) / Shift + 7 \ AltGr + ß (to the right of 0) & Shift 6 = Shift 0 When you have a german keyboard layout: do you switch for programming sessions? ...
I'm a long time casual emacs user that just switched to it as my main editor for coding. I gave up on Aquamacs and other OS X ports each for different reasons and I've settled on running Ubuntu in VBox and everything is nearly perfect. The last thing that I can't seem to figure out is semi-Icicles specific but I'm hoping someone can he...
Is it possible to set the virtual key state / mouse button state for all programs on a computer without triggering the associated events at the same time (like setting the left mouse button to be currently pressed without sending a mouse down event). Could this be achieved by setting up a fake keyboard or mouse driver for a fake keyboar...
I've had this problem that I have been putting off solving, but now is the time. I have a basic dictionary program. It has a UISearchBar and a UITableView. It works the way that it should except when running on the device it causes Keyboard lag. (Simulator is fine, of course) I have two types of searching. As-you-type and On-return. I f...
If you are a proficient coder who uses a Dvorak keyboard, how long did it take you to become as speedy at writing code with that keyboard, as you were when you used a "normal" (eg. Qwerty) keyboard? Any Dvorak layout. I realize there are several. EDIT: Please quantify your answer. I really want to know: How many weeks/months/etc.? If ...
When the user clicks left CTRL+ left SHIFT I want to make the entire application translucent (like VS2008's intellisense drop-down). If I write my code on the KeyUp event I can capture both keys being pressed, but the transparency effect should only be active while the keys are pressed. When they are release the opacity should go back to...
Here's the problem: I have a user with disabilities and using a specialized virtual keyboard. He doesn't have any trouble switching languages in his virtual keyboard, but it doesn't always change the input language (input keyboard?) of the currently-active application - which is exactly what he needs. So is there any API calls I can do ...
