keydown on script?
Posted: Fri May 06, 2011 3:47 pm
Hi,
I have the commercial version of Livecode for desktop apps. I'm thinking about a simple IOS app but before I spend money on a development environment I wanted to confirm if something can be done on IOS first.
On the card or stack script can you look for keydown without having the IOS keyboard active? I see in the forum if you have an entry field and you give focus to it the keyboard automatically pops up. That won't work for the application I am considering. Is it possible in IOS to just watch for keydown at the card or script level without having the keyboard on screen? Keypresses would be sent from a paired bluetooth keyboard.
Thanks,
Shawn
