Category: puredata Group: v0.40.2 Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: Matteo Sisti Sette (sistisette) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: keyname issues in Windows Initial Comment: I only have tested this on Windows XP. The [keyname] doesn't handle correctly at least the following keys: - space bar - enter - escape It doesn't correctly return the key name on the right outlet. With the space bar key, it returns "symbol ", which probably is "symbol" plus a space, but however, "symbol space" or something like that would be more appropriate, since in PD a space in a message is equivalent to just nothing and there is no way to handle it as far as I understand. With enter key, it seems to output "symbol " followed by the actual newline character (appears as a square in the output window in Windows) With the escape key, it has a peculiar and incoherent behaviour: on keydown, it outputs "symbol " plus some special character (and outputs a 1 on the left outlet), while on keyup it outputs "symbol Escape" (and a 0 on the left outlet) which is correct. I think all keys should have a name. However, if we accept that some keys don't have a name, I think [keyname] shouldn't output anything when those keys are pressed or releases, just like [key] and [keyup] don't output anything when an unrecognized key is pressed. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=478070&aid=1728405&group_id=55736 _______________________________________________ PD-dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.puredata.info/listinfo/pd-dev
