In 4.20E we do the following:
  • Continue to make the PREVIEW window non-modal, but suppress the raising of the initiating window in response to waiting for keyboard entry until the PREVIEW window is closed.

Dan's comments-

Fields processing internally processes these FKEY values so they will not be returned during an input fields / input select operation.

KSTAT will return these values.

I believe Luis has used these values with CONFIG KEYBOARD to remap the right click to an escape key.

The latest 4.2 version has this feature: With respect to: PRINT FIELDS "10,20,GRID 10/80,HEADERS,[hdrs],1520": (MAT HEADINGS$, MAT WIDTHS, MAT FIELD_FORMS$) The leading attribute ^nosort in MAT FIELD_FORM$ will prevent the user from sorting the column. This doesn't prevent the program from...

From the above postings there are a few key concepts that are apparent: There is no standard model for the MAC. Only Client-Server. To run the equivalent of the standard model, run both client and server on the same machine and specify LOCALHOST for the IP. The client directory MUST have a file name...

Susan.. you are correct about the attributes following the group number. I missed that. However, tab seems to work okay without the T attribute, at least in version 4.2. For now I suggest that you assign FKEY values and test for them before checking the CURFLD values. If an FKEY is found then don't ...

Luis-

New Console.doc and the wiki state-

Specify "row, col, RADIO cols, [group] [,Fkey] [,NOWAIT]": "[^]caption"

I doubt that the T had any effect.

With respect to CURFLD in conjunction with radio buttons, the following program is instructive: 00010 print NEWPAGE 00030 dim TEMP$(2)*8,SEX$(2)*8,MISC1$*20,MISC2$*20 00040 let TEMP$(1)="^Hot" : let TEMP$(2)="Cold" 00050 let SEX$(1)="Male" : let SEX$(2)="^Female&qu...

As followup on Gabriel's comment.. Note that you can test the settings by checking for the presence of the carrot (^) in front of the caption that is read, or an easier way is to assign a unique fkey value tp each button and test for that. It should also work for radio buttons to assign fkeys (which...

On the FTP site in Dll_Distr there is an examples.zip file with an example. This was distributed with the original New Console documentation which was placed on the wiki.

For help of this type, it is most efficient if you attach the code that fails and indicate what the erroneous results are.

The purpose of the documentation is definitely NOT to document erroneous attributes of any release as though they were features, but to say that such and such is a known error. If the product doesn't match the documentation then we should fix the product. Certainly not document some goofy attribute ...

I just tried it with 4.20d and it produced the proper FKEY values. Right arrow produced 116 and down arrow produced 104. Documenting erroneous results on the wiki is counterproductive. Please remove such documentation. After this, please report such anomalies and if they don't conform to the documen...
