Hi,
maybe there is someone here who can help me. (I hope this is not a faq, but I have problems with the ADC docs here...) I am trying to fix a bug in some open source port, which is unfortunately not taken care of anymore. It uses a simple
NSString *nss = [theEvent charactersIgnoringModifiers];
in the keyDown: method of its own NSView subclass to parse keyboard events. Now, it checks the string and reacts accordingly.
The problem is: On my German keyboard the "^" is a dead one, i.e. if I press it and then the space bar I get a "^". Otherwise just an accent. This results in an empty string for the "^" followed by " " for the space bar in my keyDown: method. Changing to
NSString *nss = [theEvent characters];
does not change this. How can I get a "^" string? Must I use interpretKeys: and implement an insertText: method? I would like to change a little as possible to fix this, so is there another way?
Thanks,
Ingolf |
