Re: Is there a mapping table for all rawKeyUp Codes? No solution yet with LC 8

[hh]

Fine, 'textchanged' solves your problem.

But the bug revealed by this thread still remains.
So just to 'round up' (also with regards to HTML5) this discussion 
with a working method for getting keyCodes and characterCodes.

One could also use javascript for that, see here, also for a good
explanation of the difference there and a *** try it yourself ***:

http://www.w3schools.com/jsref/event_key_keycode.asp

This is probably reliable on "all" systems that LC supports.

TMHO:
No. As a workaround to get the "char input" this isn't reliable on _any_ system 
or hardware configuration. You only *guess* with that:
IF the user uses a 'usual' keyboard layout, then he'll get from that key press 
a certain character.

Currently I'm using a german keyboard on an english system (because my english 
keyboard was drunk from a cup of cappucino). But I use the english keyboard 
layout. So my "ö" yields ";". But it's always the keyCode 59. While the 
characterCode is what you get from charToNum().

Using "Ukelele" (good site for writing systems and character encoding) 
http://scripts.sil.org/cms/scripts/page.php?site_id=nrsi=ukelele
I can use my "ö" for (nearly all) other keypresses.
And the keyCode is always 59.

NO, I said, Apple changed his keyboard mapping _method_.
That's why developers had to change the lookup method for the mapping.

Anyway, 'the keysdown' and 'rawkeydown/up' should return the _hardware_ code
[keydown/up may return, basically different, the character (or the character
code).]

Currently (MacOS 10.12, LC 8 and up) only 'the keysdown' is correct.

[Tiemo Hollmann TB]

FYI,
Mark Waddingham has just answered this issue in the QC:
" Whilst Panos has observed a difference between the pre-Cocoa and Cocoa Mac
engines, it was actually incorrect in the pre-Cocoa engines.
The raw keycodes are the keycodes of the actual keyboard keys and not the
characters they represent. The same key will give the same raw keycode
regardless of keyboard layout and it will be unaffected by the modifier key
state (alt, shift etc.)."

Thanks Hermann and Paul for clarifying this to me. I didn't noticed the
difference to *the keysdown*

You say Apple changed the keyboard mapping. I have no idea, if and how this
could affect now LC 8 concerning backward compatibility with older systems.
Will the keysdown give me on "all" systems (from 10.8-10.12) the same codes,
if Apple changed something in any system? Can I rely on this workaround to
get the correct chars, which have been entered on "all" systems?

Has anybody a best guest on how to handle this?

Hi all. Yes that's the point:

*The keysDown* return the correct (hardware) keyCode.
Tiemo is right, there is a bug introduced around LC 8. From the dictionary:

"The keycodes returned by the keysDown function are the same as those passed
as parameters with the rawKeyDown and rawKeyUp messages."

That's not true (I tested with all latest versions of LC 8.1.1 and up and
Paul confirmed for some).
Thus we can possibly locate the bug: Apple changed his keyboard mapping
method around the introduction of LC 8 (it is no longer in easy accessible
files but in "layout bundles").

Was _the keysDown_ adjusted by the LC-team and _rawkeyDown/Up_ not?
Tiemo, you should definitely report this!?

Hi Mark,
thank you for jumping in. interesting to know your explanations.

I was catching the user input to pass it to a SQL for selecting data. I will
modify my script to *textChanged* and see what happens (probably it will be
solved).

Thanks

Can you explain what effect you are trying to achieve? There might be
another way to do what you want.

The keyUp message isn't quite what it appears to be - it is a synthetic
message generated by the engine *after* passing a keyDown event through the
message path. In particular, it has no direct relation to the user actually
releasing a key.

In theory, keyUp is equivalent to doing:

   on keyDown pKey
 send "keyUp pKey" to me in 0 millisecs
   end keyDown

In general, there is no guaranteed one-to-one mapping between key strokes
and keyDown/keyUp messages as it can sometimes take multiple key presses to
generate a single character (e.g. alt-e e to get e-acute on Mac). This makes
doing any wrangling from rawkey codes to characters quite hard - as it
depends entirely on the specific keyboard layout a user has set, or which
input method is in use.

If you are doing entry into a field and want to be notified of a user
editing action which has changed the content *after* the content has been
changed you could try using the 'textChanged' message. This is sent after
any user editing operation has completed, but before the screen is unlocked
and the changes displayed.

Warmest Regards,

Mark.

Re: Is there a mapping table for all rawKeyUp Codes? No solution yet with LC 8

[Paul Hibbert]

On Mac OS Sierra 10.12.1 with LC 8.1.2(rc2) and German Keyboard layout I see:

Shift + dot (":") the keyname = 58
Shift + ö ("Ö") the keyname = 58

But if you add to these 'the keysDown' as Herman suggested I see:

Shift + dot (":") the keyname = 58 and the keysDown = 46,65505 (46 is the : key 
and 65505 is the shift key)
Shift + ö ("Ö") the keyname = 58 and the keysDown = 59,65505 (59 is the ö key 
and 65505 is the shift key)

So you should be able to use the first item of the keysDown to differentiate 
which key was pressed. Maybe not ideal, but it should work.

e.g.
   put keyname and item 1 of the keysDown

AW: AW: Is there a mapping table for all rawKeyUp Codes? No solution yet with LC 8

[Tiemo Hollmann TB]

Hello Richmond,

an essential feature of my main programs, which I just wanted to release in a 
new Quicktime free version is to enter text.
As I have pointed out in my thread "LC 8: no keyUp at fast enter" you can't 
enter fast text in LC anymore, because the keyup handler (the engine?) swallows 
chars.

Now I wanted to workaround with rawkeyup, catching the codes and mapping them 
back into the current chars. But now I find that there are duplicate codes in 
rawkeyup, which prevent me to map the codes back to the current chars.

Perhaps my English is too bad, to explain this correct.

And I am sure, that it is not an issue of indy, it's an issue of LC 8 (what I 
need because of working without QT)

Tiemo

Why are you stuck with LiveCode 8?

1. My Indy licence lets me go on downloading commercial versions until it 
expires (sometime in 2018).

2. If this is not possible, you can, at least, download the Community version 
of later builds and fiddle around to see what happens there.

Um . . .

Since the keyup handler is broken,


I am not entirely sure what you mean by this . . . I am currently 
running LiveCode 8.1.1 on
Mac OS 10.7.5 and have a boring little stack with 2 fields, "ff" & "gg", 
and this in the cardScript:


onrawKeyDown KN
putKN intofld "ff"
endrawKeyDown

onkeyUp KD
putKD intofld "gg"
endkeyUp

and that dumps the rawKey codes into field "ff" and the keycodes into 
field "gg"

just exactly as I would expect it to.

I wonder if this is something to do with Mac OS 10.11?


  I am still trying to build a table for mapping the rawkeyup key to a char. 
When testing a prototype it seemed to be easy, but now there are some pitfalls 
I don't get over. On Mac OS X 10.11, German system, German keyboard I get with 
some different char the same keyname.

When putting the following code into a field:
*On rawkeyup keyname*
*put keyname*
*end rawkeyup*

e.g.
Entering shift + dot (":") I get the keyname: 58
Entering shift + ö ("Ö") I also get the keyname: 58


I have just tried that, and, Yes, you are quite right.

If you set up a stack with 2 fields, "ff" & "gg" and put this script in 
the card:


onrawKeyUp KN
putKN intofld "ff"
endrawKeyUp

onkeyDown KD
putKD intofld "gg"
endkeyDown

and then enter shift + dot (":") [German keyboard layout, Mac OS 10.7.5],
you do get 58 in fld "ff" and ":" in fld "gg".

if you then enter shift + ö ("Ö") you do get 58 in fld "ff" and "Ö" in 
fld "gg"


which does seem very odd indeed.

I wonder how Macintosh tells the difference between whether I press key 
"58" or key "58"?




... and others...
How can I map these keynames back to the char?

Anttis kecode app shows for the first example the keycode 47 and for the second 
example 41. But that’s not what I get from rawkeyup.

And with Marks link to the source code I couldn't find a solution either. 
Because there is only a hex value table included.

Can anybody confirm these doubled codes from rawkeyup (with a German keyboard)?

I am stuck with LiveCode 8

Thanks for any ideas

Re: AW: Is there a mapping table for all rawKeyUp Codes? No solution yet with LC 8

[Richmond Mathewson]

Why are you stuck with LiveCode 8?

1. My Indy licence lets me go on downloading commercial versions until 
it expires (sometime in 2018).


2. If this is not possible, you can, at least, download the Community 
version of later builds and

fiddle around to see what happens there.

When putting the following code into a field:
*On rawkeyup keyname*
*put keyname*
*end rawkeyup*

e.g.
Entering shift + dot (":") I get the keyname: 58
Entering shift + ö ("Ö") I also get the keyname: 58

... and others...
How can I map these keynames back to the char?

Anttis kecode app shows for the first example the keycode 47 and for the second 
example 41. But that’s not what I get from rawkeyup.

And with Marks link to the source code I couldn't find a solution either. 
Because there is only a hex value table included.

Can anybody confirm these doubled codes from rawkeyup (with a German keyboard)?

I am stuck with LiveCode 8

Thanks for any ideas

AW: AW: Is there a mapping table for all rawKeyUp Codes? No solution yet with LC 8

[Tiemo Hollmann TB]

Hallo Hermann,

shift + ö and shift + dot both return 58, anyhow if I give the output tot he 
message box or a field. I can't see a script error. For me it's an engine error.

Same with "-" and "ß", both return 45.
I don't see a chance on how I could differentiate between "-" and "ß", when 
getting 45.

Perhaps I didn't understood, what you meant to workaround this issue.

The '58-example' is obviously a script error:
the message box has always display bugs, you may better use a field for the 
display.

If I understand right, then you want now the keyCode (an event, depending on 
_hardware_) and NOT the characterCode (a number representation of the char).
Some Mac apps show, with an abuse of the name, the characterCode and not the 
hardware keycode.

On a german keyboard from Apple the keycodes are on MacOS 10.12.1/LC 9.0.0-dp2 
(65505=shift)

ö = 59
Ö = 59,65505
. = 46
: = 46,65505

This is not contradicting your results if your hardware is different.

You could think about using ___the keysdown___, for example this works for me, 
using a locked field 1 and the following card script (just to see the 
difference):

on idle ; put the keysDown into fld 1 ; end idle

p.s. For the LC table (Mark's link) you could use:
 put baseConvert(hexValue,16,10) into decValue

AW: Is there a mapping table for all rawKeyUp Codes?

[Tiemo Hollmann TB]

Thanks for the hint,
I've made myself a table and was surprised to see, that the keys of rawkeyup 
are no "fantasy" livecode keys, but the good old dec codes to be find in every 
old school ASCII table. Ok Windows and Mac specifics I have to find out and 
differentiate myself manually.

It is, indeed, useful . . . have just downloaded it and have it running.

BUT: it is Macintosh only, AND, there is no way of telling from the app itself 
whether a particular code

generated by a keyDown is Mac-specific or not.

Re: Is there a mapping table for all rawKeyUp Codes?

[Richmond]

That's a nifty resource.

I don't know what Tiemo means by "the real chars" as they are dependent on
either one's keyboard driver or the language of one's operating system.

I think what Tiemo needs (?) is something that when he enters a rawKey 
number it will

tell him the key char . . .

Something like this (pseudo code):

on rawKeyDown RD
  get the keyDown of RD
put it
end rawKeyDown

um?

Richmond.

chars? If not I have to build it myself by testing each char.

Thanks

Tiemo

Re: Is there a mapping table for all rawKeyUp Codes?

Hi Tiemo,

If you search for 'PlatformKeyCode' in this file:

https://github.com/livecode/livecode/blob/develop/engine/src/platform.h

It should give you what you need.

Warmest Regards,

Mark.

Is there a mapping table for all rawKeyUp Codes?

[Tiemo Hollmann TB]

Hello,

since keyUp doesn't works anymore  as it should on windows in LC 7/8 (see my
previous post) I have to workaround with rawKeyUp.

Does anybody has a togo mapping table of the rawkeyup codes to the real
chars? If not I have to build it myself by testing each char.

Thanks

Tiemo
