generic test of the irritating seek bug

[Ed Musgrove-2]

Hi Vidyashankar!

 

I’ve attached the source and header files. If you can get it to compile it should open a small window with a list control containing ~10 items. This is to test “native” behavior of keypresses when the list is “focused”. The IDE I used (wxDev-C++) is totally unfamiliar to me so I do not know what the linking instructions should be but I included the auto-generated makefile. After you get it running we can discuss tests and changes!

Hi Ed

 

I can work on Linux (Ubuntu 9.04). Tell me what you need.

Hi Ed!

I have got it running.

There was a small problem in listTest1Frm.cpp which prevented successful compilation. In the lines 60 to 80, the text must be put inside a wxT() or _() macro. For example, listItem.SetText("New...") must be listItem.SetText(_("New...")). I have corrected those lines and attached the new cpp file.

As you said, a dialog opens with a list control. As soon as the dialog opens, I dont see the list control having focus. Pressing <tab> is also not giving it focus. So basically nothing happens no matter what key is pressed. However, after I select a list item from the mouse, I can use the up and down arrows to scroll through the items.

Tell me if I have to check anything else.

That is interesting that you are being forced on the Mac to use the wxT() .

 

Here’s the interesting test –select the first item (by the way what is it, on Windows InsertItem adds to the beginning of the list). Now press the o key; the item “operator” should be chosen; press n, the “naturally” item should be chosen.

 

Could you take a screenshot with the app running and mail it to me off list?

I am using Linux (Ubuntu 9.04). But, yes it is forcing me to using wxT().

Here’s the interesting test –select the first item (by the way what is it, on Windows InsertItem adds to the beginning of the list). Now press the o key; the item “operator” should be chosen; press n, the “naturally” item should be chosen.

The first item on the list is "first item on list".
Surprisingly, pressing the letters does not choose any item. First of all, I need to click on an item using the mouse to give it focus. (As I said before <tab> is not giving it focus). Then pressing arrow keys works, but letters does not. So when I click on first item and press the o key, I am still at "first item on list"

I looked at the audacity behaviour (the list control in keyboard preferences) in linux and it works as expected. I mean, pressing letters takes me to list items beginning with those letters. I will try and see why it is not working as expected in listTest program.

 

Could you take a screenshot with the app running and mail it to me off list?

Sure.

Audacity has code added which makes pressing the letters work for Linux, but causes it to be broken on Windows. This is what I’m working on right now.

I'm pretty sure that you need that for unicode compiles, not ANSI.

Now that Vidyashankar has this tiny little test program running on Linux I
need someone willing to test it on the Mac. We should take this off-line as
well.

Martyn, thank you for pointing out the  Unicode/ANSI difference.
