Enter key down and write a simultaneous control

I am creating a dialogue with a field with behavior such that, once the user fills in the field and press the Enter key or return the new value is returned.  However, the problem that I am running is the key down event cancels the entry to the control doesn't happen.  I can't use the event value change because the user has the choice to leave the same fair value press enter (without change).  Any ideas or suggestions?

Right-click on the control of the 'chain' and select "Update of value while typing".

  • Using a control of the chain with the Enter key, return * and * allowing repeated identical entry

    Hi all

    There must be a simple solution for this, but it's Friday afternoon, and my brain is not cooperating.

    I create a simple terminal through which a user can interact with an instrument. My question is about the only query string control. The button send and the Terminal Table are here for reference.

    Here is my desired behavior:

    (a) the user types a command in the field of the query, tape input or return. An event is triggered, and the request is sent to the instrument. The focus remains on the field in the query.

    (b) with any other action the interface user, the user types Enter or return again and again, by triggering an event that sends the request to the instrument every time Enter or return is typed. The focus remains on the field in the query.

    Here's what I have:

    This allows for one), but fails to b). The reason is, because the value of the field in the query has not changed, change value event does not fire when the user starts to spam keys enter or return. There is a way around this, as suggested by this post. Here is the solution in a few words:

    Instead of looking for the change in the value of the query command, the event fires for each key event to the bottom of the control and resembles a pressure of enter key or return. What attracts the user action, even if the content of the field of the request have not changed. The problem with this approach is that, when this event fires, I need to read the value of the query string order and send it to the instrument, but the value I get via the local Variable query is the old value, probably because the key down event fires before the value of query is saved as changed. Is there a way to programatically "enter" the contents of the control channel so it is recorded as a change in value, until I have the question via a local Variable? Is there a different way I should go about it? I'd rather not do anything that bound the input keys or return to this particular area, since I have many other UI elements that need these keys in my program.

    If not, is there a way to make the control of the fire 'Change of value' query string event when the user presses enter or return even if the value has not changed?

    Thank you for your comments!

    I thought about it.

    (1) control of the string (query) a value of update while typing.

    (2) save the key event down to the control of the chain. If the entry or return was pressed, send the state machine to the State 'send request '.

    (3) in the application 'send' State read control channel via the local Variable value.

    This is the desired behavior to allow the user repeatedly hit entry or return to regularly send a command, and the user can also type in a new order and send it by pressing enter or return.

    Thanks to all who have helped me this something to think about!

  • Combine events "Key Down" and "ValueChange?

    Hello

    I have a string control box where a bar code is entered. I want to discover two events that should trigger the same action:

    Event 1: Loss of Focus (= change value)

    For example, someone focuses on the channel control unit and changes a number, and then puts the focus (without pressing). At the time where the focus is more, this event is raised.

    Case 2: Enter"" key.

    In any time you press the key "enter" in the area of control of chain. I can filter Vcle to check whether or not it is the "enter" key. For example, a user could bring out the code bar and press ENTER to specify the barcode must remain unchanged.

    My problem is, I need to trigger the two events, but only once.

    If I have two events separate case, 2 event will raise also 1 event, so my action will be spooled twice. Not good.

    I'm not yet sure how to combine two cases of event in a unique event, which triggers only once on 'enter keypress' or "lost focus, change the alias value". Any suggestions?

    See below. Thank you!

    Switch to dynamically registered events:

    Note that you must pass the dynamic events in the event sources list:

    Then, after each event, unregister and then register again for events.  If there was an event in the queue's duplicate, this will destroy it.

  • Passing values to sub VI and write data to controls

    As part of a control for a VFD interface I am interfacing with via Modbus TCP, I wanted to try some of my code partition in a Subvi

    However, in doing so, I will be very difficult to understand how I can read the current settings of player for the ramp up and down values and update these values in the front of my control.

    The Vi sub is tested and works exactly as I want. Selection playback (system lock on pressed) reads the registers of the reader and exports controls and indicators. The indicators have been included because I didn't know how to move the data off the sub vi without them. Update of work to write the current value in the controls in the VFD logs.

    However when I integrate my project more extensive this VI values are always represented by zeros if I lock switch. However, I see a momentary flash of the correct values after pressing the play button or if I change the closing operation changed, however, I would prefer that it to opperate in a mode of closing in order to reduce the overhead costs of communication on the disc.

    Hello

    A number of suggestions:

    1. use references and property nodes to define indicators FP of a Subvi (you can learn more here and here)

    2. do not put the indicators of production inside the case. When the case is not read, the VI generates the default values to the outputs and gives you the values null.

    Good luck

  • ButtonField who works for normal click and also occurs a different action with a key down and click on

    I have a bunch of buttons on my main screen. They currently do something when you click on it. I want to make them do something different when ALT-clicked. I built them as:

    ButtonField mycoolbuttonname = new ButtonField("Awesome",ButtonField.CONSUME_CLICK);
    

    Then I assigns each a ChangeListener which then redirects this specific to a specific code listener.

    How can I run an ALT + click on a different code of FieldChangeListener?

    I think somehow with: KeyDown API

    I have several buttons on a screen. All work now with: 1. click on Trackpad 2. Touch-click 3. Enter-click

    I want each button to be able to do two things:

    1. a thing with an ALT-activate(by any of the three ways as seen above)

    2. a normal else activate (by one of three ways as seen above)

    Dominant Navigation click would not however to ALT-Enter and Alt-Touch(The way I want it is that these two do #1 from above too). Correct or not?

    In the simplest possible terms:

    Each button will make a specific thing turn on and another thing different specific on ALT-putting into service.

    Right now, they work absolutely fine to do a thing. But I'll try to find a way to make them also to do something else on ALT-putting into service.

    I think if I can somehow make a way to get the true/false if ALT is pressed during a change of field and then do an if/then based on this information in each fieldChanged method so I should be good.

    Update: well, I got the errors go away with your code above. At least press Alt-Trackpad works. I'm going with it. Thank you!

  • How to separate the 'down' key panel and digital control

    Hi all

    I have a key to proecess vi events for Panel and a digital control in this Panel. the app will do:

    1. when the Panel is focused, allows the user 'up' and 'down' to the driver of some hardware.

    2. when the digital control is activated, 'up' and 'down' change its value as usual.

    somehow the other did not, because the round table 'touch down' was trigger as well when I use «to the top "'down' key aminata CNC.»

    Then, I used "Key down?" digital control to block the "up/down" key But the first time, when I run the Vi, the Panel always got triggered only once.

    any suggestions on this? test code attached to this post too.

    Thank you

    It works for me in 2014.  In short, you just need to check to see if your digital has the focus.  If it isn't, then you treat the value of the key.  No need of any other event here except the stop button.
