Modifier Keys || Shift + Click = DoSomething

[Chazrox]

What I want to do is set this for a label (text input).

if (Shift + Click)
Button1.setValue(1);

-- After user presses enter while focus is on a text label, Im going to clear the text field and need to set a button value to 1.

Please advise. I've read the docs on this but im not sure how to use the modifier api's in an if statement.

@Chazrox Can you clarify, do you want shift + click followed by enter to do the action. Or shift + click does the actions, or enter does the action? Or something else?

[Chazrox]

@d-healey damn, sorry im brain fried. I just asked 2 questions at once.

lets just worry about the enter thingy. haha..

When I press enter on some text input on a label, I want it to trigger 'SaveButton'.

• Select label
• enter text
• press enter
• execute 'save' action
• empty text field

@d-healey long nights.

You want it to trigger the button or the save action?

You probably just need this

inline function onLabel1Control(component, value)
{
	// Do what you want here
};

Content.getComponent("Label1").setControlCallback(onLabel1Control);

[Chazrox]

@d-healey oh shoot. I didnt even think to do a callback with a label. So is 'Enter" already an available function? I dont see it under 'scripting label' in docs.

Thats def a modifier function im assuming. Which brings me to my other question. Modifier keys?

It's the default behaviour, when you hit enter it will trigger the label's callback

Modifier keys?

Content.setKeyPressCallback() - It's a little finicky to use, you should search the forum for information because I can't remember :p

It's on my list to make a video about it.

Perfect. That should do the job.

I think thats a great video idea! I think it adds to the possibilities for some fun use cases if its easy enough to implement.

Things that come to mind for some of my own projects... :

Shift + Click = Solo / Isolate
Shift + Click = Reset all similar components to 'Default' state/value
Ctrl + Click = Copy --> value
Ctrl + DoubleClick = Pasta ---> value

Yeah I added this to my mixer script recently.

[Chazrox]

@d-healey See, thats what I need to. lol I think alot of people would like that one.

[Chazrox]

@d-healey can you see this?

pressing enter after typing text doesnt trigger callback.

	inline function onPresetNameToSaveControl(component, value)
	{
		if (value) // Is this correct/enough?
		{
			SaveOk.setValue(1); // Save Button
			SaveOk.changed();
		}
	};
	
	Content.getComponent("PresetNameToSave").setControlCallback(onPresetNameToSaveControl);

if (value)

This isn't a button callback, no need to check the value.

Why are you triggering the save button? Do you need to do that?

You can put your save functionality into a function and call it from the button and from the label.

[Chazrox]

@d-healey ok. I see. Let me changed it around and try this again.

[Chazrox]

@d-healey Thank you sir.

now about this video...? I need that info now! haha.

[d.healey]

@Chazrox It's too hot here to record videos, have to wait until next week once I've stopped melting

[Chazrox]

@d-healey damn I feel you. Its hot in LA rn too. Ok. I'll wait. ha

[Chazrox]

@d-healey Maybe you can help me do this one and I can figure out the rest.

From what I have now, 'enter' executes my 'save' function. I want 'Shift+Click' to run my 'rename' function.

[d.healey]

@Chazrox shift click on the label?

[Chazrox]

@d-healey yes. Shift+Enter = doSomething();

[d.healey]

@Chazrox From what I understand, this should work

But it doesn't. It looks like when the event is the enter key it won't work while shift is down - at least not on my system. Maybe Christoph has an idea.
