linux - keypad - arrow keys

irishwoody

Anyone able to point me for a solution to issue I have running under linux problem is that the arrow keys on keypad seem to be "ignored" in PDE. The home, end and PgUp and Pg down keys work fine

you mean something like this does not work?

color fillVal = color(126);

void draw() {
  fill(fillVal);
  rect(25, 25, 50, 50);
}

void keyPressed() {
  if (key == CODED) {
    if (keyCode == UP) {
      fillVal = 255;
    } else if (keyCode == DOWN) {
      fillVal = 0;
    } 
  } else {
    fillVal = 126;
  }
}

if you try it like this?

color fillVal = color(126);

void draw() {
  fill(fillVal);
  rect(25, 25, 50, 50);
}

void keyPressed() {
  if (key == CODED) {
    if (keyCode == 38) {
      fillVal = 255;
    } else if (keyCode == 40) {
      fillVal = 0;
    } 
  } else {
    fillVal = 126;
  }
}

I think the problem is in the PDE, the editor itself.

yes - issue is in editor itself - its very difficult for me to code with any sort of speed without the arrow keys !

Arrow keys work alright in my Lubuntu 13.04 box + OpenJDK 7! (*)
