| Summary | 0002959: Key events captured wrong for alt and altgr keys | ||||
| Description | I have a widget that captures key events. In it I have the following callins: * function widget:KeyPress(key, mods, isRepeat) Spring.Echo("Key down:", key) if key==0x134 then Spring.Echo("Alt down") end end * function widget:KeyRelease(key, mods, isRepeat) Spring.Echo("Key up:", key) if key==0x134 then Spring.Echo("Alt up") end end When I press left alt I get these results: "Key down: 308" and "Alt down" When I release left alt, I get no results. When I press right Alt (AltGr), I get these results: "Key down: 308" and "Alt down" When I release right alt, I get this result: "key up: 306" | ||||
| Additional Information | Tested with Spring 85.0, latest xta = 9.71. I have windows 7 x64 and a logitech deluxe 250 keyboard. No relevant errors in infolog.txt. | ||||

> When I release left alt, I get no results. You have to return true in KeyPress to get the KeyRelease event. |

thanks SirMaverick. @jools: does it work with the suggested changes? |

Hmmm, I tested this a while ago, and if I remember correctly it does work if I return true from that event. However, the complication then is that you can only have one widget/gadget which returns true for the KeyPress of one key, because if I return true then it doesn't process other KeyPress events. |
