Windows: When i press "1" on the left side I get Description "1", on the numpad i get "numpad 1"
Mac: Always get "1"
- Code: Select all
bool Editor::keyPressed (const KeyPress& key1, Component* originatingComponent)
{
DBG("Desc "+key1.getTextDescription());
issue #2
...another issue, i have a workaround, but im wondering if its normal.
result of KeyPress::createFromDescription("W").getKeyCode() is different from when i'm pressing "W" on the keyboard in the keyPressed() callback procedure and call key.getKeyCode();
As a workaround i use "KeyPress newkey=KeyPress::createFromDescription(key.getTextDescription());"
- Code: Select all
bool Editor::keyPressed (const KeyPress& key, Component* originatingComponent)
{
String keyDescription1="W";
int keyCode1=KeyPress::createFromDescription(keyDescription1).getKeyCode();
int keyCode2=key.getKeyCode();
String keyDescription2=KeyPress(keyCode2).getTextDescription();
DBG("keyCode1 ="+String(keyCode1)+" keyDescription1="+keyDescription1);
DBG("keyCode2 ="+String(keyCode2)+" keyDescription2="+keyDescription2);
Im Pressing the Key "w" on PC:
- Code: Select all
keyCode1 =87 keyDescription1=W
keyCode2 =87 keyDescription2=W
on Mac:
- Code: Select all
keyCode1 =87 keyDescription1=W
keyCode2 =119 keyDescription2=W
( i know that keyCode differs on different platforms, but a least createFromDescription should be non-ambiguous?)
PS: i'm using a PC-keyboard on my Mac, don't know if its relevant, maybe someone can cross-check
