Assign the function button to an Application program

I want to attribute a function F1 key to f12, an application program - not a Microsoft application. We will consult the application here AP program. The AP allows me to specify a key or combination of keys that it will react to and perform a predefined operation. I am currently using CTRL + END and works very well. However, I often fat-finger the CTRL key and get something total tied and undesirable. So, I would assign a F1 - F12 key instead of CTRL + END to the AP. No CTRL, just ordered one.  I am F10 and when I use it, the AP does not respond as it does when you use CTRL + END.

My question is NOT how to tell AP using F10. I know how to do this. Apparently another program 'owner' F10 and I would like to find how to "remove the attribution" that and assign it to the square to the AP. I'm not keen to experiment all 12 Fkeys, I could fall on whoever's doing something destructive.

TIA,

Phil

F1 to F12 are not attributed to the global level.  Each application will decide for themselves.  Example: F2 is 'rename file' when you are inside a folder, but F2 is also "edit form" within Excel and 'move current paragraph"within the word.

There is no way to 'Cancel' the F2 key: it changes automatically according to what type of program you are watching.

When you press F5, the keyboard sends the order to the currently active program.  The program can decide to do anything he wants with it (or ignore it completely).  If the person who built the application that you use to add a subroutine "what to do when you press an F key' to the program.

BUT!  You can also use a program like AutoHotKey to create a global macro.  So you can set it so that when you press F3, AutoHotKey intervenes, engulfs this command and sends a Ctrl-end signal instead.  Pretty cool feature and it could be what you need.

    Hi John,.

    Software installation under Windows XP using Virtual PC option will not help. However, you try to install the software by using the compatibility mode and choose Windows XP as the previous version. The success of this method is not guaranteed because the mouse is very old.

    You try to install the software for the mouse in Windows XP compatibility mode.

    If this does not help, you can contact the manufacturer.

But there is no download button for my application on BB 10 Dev Alpha App World.

    What class screen do you use for this?

    If you are subclassing screen, then simply substitute:

    protected void makeMenu(Menu menu,
                            int instance)
    

    If you are subclassing of another class of the screen, then you will also need to intercept the key Characters.CONTROL_MENU by substituting keyControl:

      // override of onMenu()    protected void onMenu()    {        Menu menu = new Menu();        makeMenu( menu, 0 );        menu.show();    }
    
      protected boolean keyControl(char character, int status, int time)    {
    
            switch (character){
    
                // menu key pressed            case Characters.CONTROL_MENU:                onMenu();                break;
    
                default:                return false;        }        return true;    }

  • Several buttons submit fake does take several "RealEmail" of the function buttons?

    Hello

    I have a form that incorporates several forms 1 and coming from a selection in a drop-down list, some fields are visible. So, I created a separate send to each of the shapes button, but the problem is that it is not submit when you click it. I have 6 buttons send, but only 1 button RealEmail. all the 6 buttons of fake email may refer to the same key of RealEmail, or must it be 6 RealEmail buttons individually appointed for the form to submit? Here is the code that I use for the fake buttons (the only change in the code is a different email address on each of the buttons) by e-mail:

    If

    (CSRFirstName.rawValue ! = null) { }

    RealEmail.event__click.submit.target

    = ' mailto: ' + " ""[email protected]"" " + « ? "subject = something ' + PaxName.rawValue +

    "Order #" + Order.rawValue;

    RealEmail.execEvent ("click");

    }

    else {

    App.Alert ("Please enter your first and last name!");

    }

    Thanks in advance for any idea about this problem...

    No you need only a real email button, but you will have to reference the full path of the object rather than just his name.

  • ESR 31 to 38 ESR FX Fx update reach the functioning of business Web applications?

    Hello
    We're set ESR Firefox as default browser in our society. Before we have tested and updated our desktop tools to make sure they work and is displayed correctly with FX. We tested with FX ESR 31.3.

    After the recent release, we now hesitate what version of the browser to deploy: old ESR31 or go directly to the new ESR38.

    Question: what is the risk involved? can we assume that all the apps that worked with the previous version of ESR even would work with the new? Or should we rather re - test applications before you go for the new version and install the ESR31 (which will be soon not supported).
    Thanks a lot for any help in this matter.
    Tom

    Please, do not assume! Since you probably have enough challenges, I recommend IS 31.7.0esr, which is the output may. I think there will be an update more in a few weeks, from 31.7.0esr to 31.8.0esr (based on the chart of the roadmap in https://www.mozilla.org/firefox/organ.../faq/). If you have several weeks to prepare thoroughly for ESR 38.

    Here's the reasoning:

    Because the ESR series gets little other than priority security patches updated, there are thousands of changes to the ESR 38 vs ESR 31. It include increased criteria for security protocols and SSL certificates to changes in the way Firefox styles pre tags (it is no longer wrap text unless you used the white-space: pre-wrap style for them).

    You can get an approximate overview of the changes possibly affecting your apps by reading all the articles in this series of Firefox 38 back to Firefox 32 (links at the bottom of each page):

    But there is really no substitute for the test because these items cannot cover the high points, and you will probably need several weeks for this.

  • loadMovie loses the functions of the buttons

    Hi, I have a movie player and I want users to be able to customize the command buttons.

    I use a loadMovie to load the user button in and THEN assign the read function to this button, but the service seems to be lost ( see example here)

    I talked about the actionscript manual and it says that "with the help of handlers with MovieClip.loadMovie () can be unpredictable".

    My question is, how can I achieve this? And is there something obvious wrong here?

    Thank you!

    I wonder if you try to assign the feature film loaded until it is fully charged. With loadMovie, you have no way of knowing for sure the button is totally loaded. If you use the MovieClipLoader class, you can monitor the onLoadComplete event and then try to assign the function. I think that maybe that's your problem.

  • By pressing the home button does not take me to the home screen of iOS 9.3.3

    I have recenly updated upgraded to iOS 9.3.3 and I noticed that pressing the home button does not take me to the home screen. The only way to get there is by using the creature of multitasking. (double pressing the home button) Also, some applications seem to freeze if turn my phone off and then turn it back on, or when I access it via the multitasking function. Can someone please help?

    Try a forced reboot. Hold down the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons at the same time for about 15 seconds, until the Apple logo appears. You won't lose anything.

    If a force restart does not help, try a system restore. First save your device via iTunes. Also import your photos on your computer and copy all the important data. Reconstruction of the support first test and test. If this does not help, you may need to restore as a new and reconfigure from scratch as the backup may be damaged. It is important to have your photos and your saved data separately from the backup. Here are the steps for a restoration:

  • Function button "Transfer" CTS?

    We run 1.7 on our endpoints CTS and the Midlet running on PSTN phones as well.  I've been asked for the ability to transfer a call from one piece of CTS to the other.

    Currently, it seems that the MIdlet control programmable keys that are presented on the phone, is that correct?

    I can't get a transfer softkey to appear on PSTN phones.  Is it normal?  Endpoints support CTS same call transfer feature?

    Thank you!

    Hello

    The soft keys are part of the MIDlet which are served by the codec software.  The function button 'transfer' is not included, as CTS endpoints do not support the call transfer feature.
