Tried that but doesn't change anything.Could you try PtGetControlEvents(true, self.key) and PtGetControlEvents(false, self.key) instead of PtEnableControlKeyEvents(self.key) and PtDisableControlKeyEvents(self.key)
Thanks for the tip. Added the piece of code.And it might be a good idea to unload the dialog finally in the destructor
To prevent that I had already inserted the boolean variable 'CamGUIActivated' which prevents the IOpenGUI from running twice (and from the log file I can see that it only runs IOpenGUI once).Could be that calling it twice causes problems.
Code: Select all
if (id == GUIActivator.id) and state:I've done that now and the code looks like this:you can try to make always a debug print when the def OnControlKeyEvent is executed
Code: Select all
def OnControlKeyEvent(self, controlKey, activeFlag):
print 'CONTROL KEY PRESSED'
if (controlKey == PlasmaControlKeys.kKeyExitMode):
print 'CONTROL KEY ESCAPE PRESSED'
self.ICloseGUI()
elif ((controlKey == PlasmaControlKeys.kKeyMoveBackward) or ((controlKey == PlasmaControlKeys.kKeyRotateLeft) or (controlKey == PlasmaControlKeys.kKeyRotateRight))):
print 'CONTROL KEY ARROW PRESSED'
self.ICloseGUI()
If I remember it correctly, state=1 means mouse down, state=0 means mouse up again.TheMagician wrote:When you usewhich state is actually detected? Mouse down or mouse up?Code: Select all

) tick "modal". This seems to block all keyboard input.
Just kidding, of course, thanks a lot for all your input 
Here is the link: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Modal_windowIn user interface design, a modal window is a child window that requires users to interact with it before they can return to operating the parent application, thus preventing the workflow on the application main window. Modal windows are often called heavy windows or modal dialogs because the window is often used to display a dialog box.
Modal windows are commonly used in GUI systems to command user awareness and to display emergency states. On the Web, they are often used to show images in detail.[1]
