BlitzMax Forums/MaxGUI Module/Keydown Values

I have upto date blitz max and maxgui.
The key return commands are not working like they should.
Such as keydown(Key_letter)

You know that you have to use EVENT_KEYDOWN and/or EVENT_KEYUP in MaxGUI, don't you?

Repeat
   WaitEvent ()

   Select EventID ()
     'blabla events blabla


     Case EVENT_KEYDOWN
       Select EventData ()
         Case KEY_ESCAPE
           'do something
         Case KEY_A
           '...
       End Select


     'blabla more events blabla
   End Select

Forever

Or call the EnablePolledInput() command before your main event loop.

I thought KeyDown was Graphics based? I would have to go with d-bug on this one.

Still not working.Blitz max is not returning values on key code, I think it only works when my opengl canvas is active.

Post some code.

Still not working.

Did you try the suggestions above?


d-bug(Posted 2008) [#8]
I vote for "NO" :)


duquette(Posted 2008) [#9]
Yes and it fixes the mouse problem only, not key board.


d-bug(Posted 2008) [#10]
Can we have some code?

It is, in that Graphics() calls EnablePolledInput().
