Event for the enter key?

[stalkerX]

Hi.

I use NKTextField to display the text field. How can I catch the pressing of the enter key on keyboard?

Thanks.

[sunny]

there is already a request for that in bug tracker, there will be a callback to do that.

Does the new version fixed the bug?

[sunny]

no, it wasn't fixed, however 1.9.1 is coming right after with couple important bugfixes, including this issue.

Sorry to resurrect this thread, but any news on this issue considering 1.9.4 is out?

Hello.
I understand this is an old topic, however I am also running into the problem of not having a callback on return. Has this been resolved? If so, how would I go about using this callback? The use of the return key is vital to my application, thanks.

This has not been added yet, at least according to the documentation.

However, you can use the javascript onKeypress event to capture that. The return button fires 13:

Code: Select all

<input type="text" onKeypress="NKAlert('You Pressed:' ,event.keyCode);" />

Hello,
Thank you for the speedy reply.

However, my app has extensive use of the NKTextField rather than HTML input forms. Would this still be possible, or would I have to rewrite the application using forms instead of NKTextField objects? There must be a way of knowing, could I use setTextChangeCallback to somehow detect if keycode 13 was the last input?
