I have completed my autofill for a standard text boxes. Using the following
function place.action(self,key,newValue)
local len = newValue:len()
-- If the place has a value and the key was not a control one
if key > 0 and len > 0 then
local p = placeList:findFirst(newValue)
if p then
self.value = p
-- Put cursor to start of selection
self.caretpos = len
-- Select from cursor to end of the string
self.selectionpos = len..':999'
return iup.IGNORE
end
end
end
Unfortunately on GetParam I don't know how to get the details of the last
key pressed, to see if it was a character or a control key. I have tried
storing the last value, but that did not work as I wanted.
Is there an easy way to get the last key press back in GetParam?
-- Check for AutoText on field
if param.type == 'STRING' then
local ctrl = iup.GetParamHandle(param, "CONTROL")
print(oldv[param_index + 1],param.value)
if oldv[param_index + 1] == param.value then
return 1
else
oldv[param_index + 1] = param.value
end
local tag = id[param_index + 1]
if pRegions.shortcuts[tag] then
local l = param.value:len()
if l > 0 then
for k,r in ipairs(pRegions.shortcuts[tag]) do
local v = param.value:lower()
local s = string.lower(r:sub(1,l))
if v == s then
ctrl.value = r
ctrl.caretpos = l
ctrl.selectionpos = l..':999'
oldv[param_index + 1] = ctrl.value
return 0
end
end
end
end
