Trying to create a Virtual Keyboard.

Posted: Thu Jul 14, 2016 4:59 pm
by bradmaudlin
I need to design an application that can use a virtual keyboard or real keyboard interchangeably.
I would like for the user to be able to type on the virtual keyboard or the real keyboard and display the text.
I have tried using GET, SAY and EDIT commands.

If I use the "GET" the real keyboard works fine, but the virtual keyboard data is put at the end of the keyboard data (because on GET the VAR has to have a defined length).

If I use the "SAY" the virtual keyboard works fine and I stuff the m_TextString var with the real keyboard data using oDlg:bKeyDown := { | nKey | KEYSEEK(nKey)} . The alpha works (but returns only CAPS), and I get different symbols on the punctuation keys and the numeric keypad. *** This is may preferred method if possible ***

If I use the "EDIT" the real keyboard works fine, and the virtual keyboard add characters to the m_TextString var but I can not get it to display in the EDIT window.

Here is the sample code I am working with -

Code: Select all

*+      "Virtual Keyboard"
#include "FiveWin.ch"
#include "colors.ch"

If you want a virtual keyboard, I assume it is for a touch screen monitor. In that case, the virtual keyboard in windows works fine with the GET field. In fact, I use the handwriting screen on tablets and it has no problems in the get fields.

Tim,
I have used the built in touch screens keyboards also, but on some of my dialogs the keyboard pops up and cover the GETs. I would rather use my own so I can control the positioning and look of the keyboard, but I can't quite get it the way I would like.

Thanks,
Brad

Hello Brad,
thank you for your code.
This is a very beautiful keyboard layout.
I will change my own designs of the keyboard to yours.
Best regards,
Otto
