zapat 55 Posted June 25, 2014 (edited) Edit: Why does one have to struggle with a problem for 2 hours, post a help me thread, and find the solution 10 seconds later? :) Which is of course: ctrlSetFocus ------------------------------------------------------ I have a settings dialog. What I would like to do is to have a field which can receive a key after the user clicks on it. (to remap a mission specific key) Now I have the following problems getting the key: If I use displayAddEventHandler ["KeyDown",... the TAB key is not received (it would be important though) since the dialog reserves it for itself. And for some reason I can't get any controls to receive KeyDown EH. The click may steals focus? I use an ActiveText type for that and it just can't receive KeyDown EH (I couldn't make it work) I can accept that I won't be able to receive ESC keypress in a dialog, but I should be able to get the rest. Should I close the dialog, receive the keypress, and reopen the dialog? Seems to be gunge... Thanks in advance Edited June 25, 2014 by zapat Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
